A warm-hearted reading adventure in Parchim, when Torsten Woywod tells of new beginnings, closeness and the healing tranquillity of the book village Redu from Mathilde and Marie.
Warm-hearted and decelerating - a novel that touches the soul
In the small book village of Redu, hidden away in the Belgian Ardennes, time seems to stand still. Between forests, rivers and leaning church towers, people here live according to a simple principle: pause, feel, arrive.
When Marie leaves her hectic life in Paris behind her, she has no idea that a chance encounter on the train will lead her to the very place where her heart comes to rest. In Redu, she not only finds a roof over her head with the warm-hearted bookseller Jónína, but also people who show her how healing real closeness can be.
Spring not only awakens nature, but also hope, courage and change - even in the withdrawn Mathilde.
A touching novel about friendship, new beginnings and the power of finding oneself again.
We are delighted to welcome the author Torsten Woywod to the 3rd Parchimer LiteraturTage!
He will read on April 01, 2026 as the opening event at Movie Star Parchim.
The LiteraturTage are a series of events organized by the bookshop Rein(ge)lesen.
