Author Conversation
Queer Literature: Olivia Wenzel and Sarah Schulman
The Goethe Pop Up Kansas City and the Goethe-Institut Boston present Queer Literature from Germany and the US. Join us for our second event as we welcome Berlin-based debut novelist Olivia Wenzel and veteran author Sarah Schulman from New York for a reading followed by a conversation. The virtual conversation will be moderated by Dr. Robert D. Tobin.
This event is part of Queer as German Folk, a project celebrating the multilayered histories of Germany’s and America’s diverse LGBTIQ+ communities. A digitally modified version of the exhibition Queer as German Folk and a full program of virtual events are presented by the Goethe-Institut in North America in collaboration with its Goethe Pop Ups and the Schwules Museum Berlin (SMU).
Dr. Robert D. Tobin is the inaugural occupant of the Henry J. Leir Chair in Language, Literature, and Culture at Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts, where he teaches comparative literature with an emphasis on German Studies. Tobin's areas of expertise include LGBTIQ+ studies, queer theory, gender studies, human rights, and German and European cultural studies.
This event takes place on September 30, at 4:00 pm CDT on Zoom. Registration is required—please use the link to register.
