«Wenn Bryan Johnson tatsächlich 120 Jahre alt werden sollte, könnte eines Tages die halbe Welt zu seinem Longevity-Cult konvertiert sein.»
—Raphaela Edelbauer

“If you tell someone you have been reading poetry—and, God forbid, enjoying it—their response will likely be similar to your recounting a mindfulness class or volunteering at a soup kitchen.”
—Miriam Stoney

The world is an ugly place, and we all need some relief to cope with it. Raphaela Edelbauer explores a cynical flight into the future—how the ultra-rich try to outpace the messiness of life (and death) through technology and self-optimization. Miriam Stoney looks inward—if we’re all stuck in doom cycles anyway, why not embrace the unbearable nastiness of being?

Come listen to two conversations about Berlin Review pieces in progress—with Raphaela Edelbauer, Miriam Stoney, and BR editors Hannah Szabó & Tobias Haberkorn.

Readings and Conversations will be in English and in German. Followed by a Q & A moderated by Matthias Seier of Volkstheater.

This is the second ever Berlin Review event in Vienna and Copies of our Readers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 will be on sale at a discount.
