Widdersehen - Reading with Leonie Swann

Hosted by: Marion Bösker-von Paucker

It all started with sheep: Leonie Swann's debut novel "Glennkill" - a murder mystery solved by a flock of sheep - became an international bestseller, translated into more than thirty languages and adapted for the cinema this year. Born in 1975 near Munich and long based in England, Swann blends crime fiction, philosophical wit and British humour at its best. Now she returns to the world of sheep with "Widdersehen" (DuMont): set against English pastureland, eccentric characters and existential questions, it is a layered crime novel with plenty going on beneath the surface.
