An Evening about Loss, Closeness, and the Quiet Power of Rural Life
With Old Varieties, Ewald Arenz comes to Fürth with a world of novels that thrives on silence, labor, and emotional movement. The evening at the Fürth City Theater delves deep into the fine, literarily condensed narrative style for which Arenz is known: human, precise, warm, and without false sentimentality. The novel is among his major successes and exemplifies his combination of literary ambition and narrative accessibility. ([ewald-arenz.de](https://ewald-arenz.de/vita/))
A Story that Strikes Deep
At the center is Sally, who flees the clinic just before her Abitur, and Liss, who manages her farm alone. From a chance encounter, a quiet alliance forms. Between harvest, farm work, and the rhythm of the seasons, a closeness develops that doesn’t impose itself but grows organically. It is this restraint that defines the literary quality of Old Varieties: Arenz does not tell loudly, but with careful observation, rhythmic language, and a sensitivity to emotional transitions. The novel adaptation is based on the bestseller by Ewald Arenz. ([de.wikipedia.org](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alte_Sorten?utm_source=openai))
Reading Atmosphere at the Fürth City Theater
The Fürth City Theater provides the perfect setting for such stories: a magnificent venue right in the city, historically rich and yet approachable. The building is located at Königstraße 116, accessible via public transport through the Rathaus and Stadttheater stops, and offers parking options in the vicinity, including the FLAIR parking garage. The box office opens one hour before the performance begins. This creates a reading atmosphere in which literary experience and urban comfort come together.
