Exhibition ‘Double Life’

What were the defining features of literary life in Germany after 1945? This is the theme of the poster exhibition Double Life, which provides a detailed overview of the varied literary landscape of postwar Germany. Alongside information about the leading writers of the time, the publishing scene, postwar literature and the wider historical context, the exhibition features numerous historical photographs that serve to document and illustrate these themes.

The exhibition will show at different branches of the Goethe-Institut throughout the world from 2010 onwards.
