Reinhard Kuhnert will read from his latest publication "Was unvergessen bleibt" which encompasses four stories in relation to memory and what will stay "unforgettable". His first story deals with a man who has had a brain tumour removed and who is now trying to train his brain to remember things of his past. This man, Josef, however questions if all his memories some of which he fought to supress due to their painfulness in past are worth remembering. His second story is set around a strange funeral in a small village in Mecklenburg and his third tells of a family visit in Weimar. In his fourth and last story, "The Immortal" , Reinhard has set the scene in Connemara where Fergus Monahan has seemingly died, although his wife Maeve is certain that he is alive and kicking.
