Deutsches Haus at New York University presents, in collaboration with the Austrian Cultural Forum, Consulate General of Switzerland, Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany, Deutsches Haus at Columbia University, German Book Office, Goethe-Institut New York, and Pro Helvetia Festival Neue Literatur 2013: Frühschoppen Literary Brunch Part 5: Leif Randt Sunday, February 24th, 2013 The six German-language authors of Festival Neue Literatur 2013: Tim Krohn, Leif Randt, Silke Scheuermann, Clemens J. Setz, Cornelia Travnicek and Ulrike Ulrich, give a sampling from their work, providing a taste of new writing from Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. This event is moderated by Susan Bernofsky and Claudia Steinberg. Festival Neue Literatur (FNL) is New York's first and only annual German-language literary festival, established in 2009 as a collaborative project of New York's leading German-language cultural institutions: the Austrian Cultural Forum, Consulate General of Switzerland, Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany, Deutsches Haus at Columbia University, Deutsches Haus at NYU, German Book Office, Goethe-Institut New York, and Pro Helvetia. Frühschoppen Literary Brunch 2013 is made possible by the generous support of BMW of North America and Air Berlin and also supported by Radeberger. Leif Randt, 29, born in Frankfurt/Main (Germany) is a prose- and screenwriter. After his debut Leuchtspielhaus, was released in 2009, his second novel Schimmernder Dunst über CobyCounty (Shimmering Haze Over CobyCounty), was released in fall 2011. Reviewers described it as a "dystopian utopia," as a "generation novel," and even as "the beginning of a new age in German?literature." Randt has lately won the Düsseldorfer Literary Award 2012 and a residency at Villa Aurora, Santa Monica/Los Angeles, for summer 2013. He lives in Berlin and is currently working on a science-fiction novel as well as on the memoirs of his twenties. Featured novel: Shimmering Haze Over CobyCounty The utopian community in Leif Randt's understated satire of the leisured class, Shimmering Haze Over CobyCounty, seems too good to be true. Created and supported by the founders of a cosmetic company, CobyCounty is a community dedicated to surfaces, comfort, wellness, creativity, and marketing. One of the public art installations, for example, is a giant shampoo bottle. CobyCounty is little short of a trendy lifestyle magazine come to life: the coastal landscape is lovely, the well-educated, well-paid, cosmopolitan residents pursue careers in the arts, in design, management, and high-concept gastronomy. Self-realization would be part of this ideal, if only the residents had a sufficient sense of self. Leif Randt's novel is a send-up of a certain social caste that can be find in almost any cosmopolitan city, whether among the young 'artists' in Prenzlauer Berg or the hipster crowd in Brooklyn. Its prevailing tone of pervasive, but lightly worn irony will strike many as familiar if not appealing. The concept is intriguing: What would it be like to live in a completely marketed and marketable world?
