A book presentation at Buchhandlung am Schäfersee of “Berliner Sachen” by Uwe Johnson, a volume of essays from 1961 to 1971 first published in 1975. Katja Leuchtenberger and Robert Gillett, literary scholars and co-editors of the major Uwe Johnson complete edition, present texts Johnson wrote in and about Berlin. In them, Johnson opposes the boycott of the Berlin S-Bahn, tells stories about escape helpers and comments on the events around 1968, always seeking dialogue against the speechlessness of divided Berlin.
