Book Premiere: Arne Rautenberg — Literaturhaus Schleswig-Holstein, Kiel
Description was written before the event

Arne Rautenberg ranks among Germany's most versatile contemporary poets, known for his poems for both children and adults. At the premiere of his new collection "19 Türen" (Wunderhorn), he will present verses created during late-night writing sessions in his apartment with nineteen doors: "lyrical mobiles, graceful little art machines, [...]" (Harald Hartung, F.A.Z.), imbued with existential depth of insight.

Born in 1967, Rautenberg lives as a poet and artist in his native city of Kiel, where he is renowned for his playful, experimental poetry.
