A poetic children's experience in the open air: Andreas Thamm in Fürth
When StadtLesen transforms the Dr.-Konrad-Adenauer-Anlage in Fürth into an open reading living room in 2026, a rare moment occurs where literature is not only read but experienced. On June 21, children and families will meet Andreas Thamm with a reading from I and all my selves – a format that combines language art, imagination, and the immediate reading atmosphere into a vibrant literary experience.
An author with a literary style and cultural journalistic profile
Andreas Thamm, born in 1990 in Bamberg and based in Nuremberg, writes for taz, ZEIT ONLINE, SPIEGEL ONLINE, Fluter, and other media. He studied Creative Writing and Cultural Journalism in Hildesheim and was awarded the Cultural Promotion Prize as well as a working scholarship from the Free State of Bavaria in 2020 and the Culture Prize of the City of Nuremberg in 2021. This biographical depth shapes his texts: precise observation, linguistic elegance, and a sensitivity to the experiential world of his young audience.
StadtLesen as a stage for closeness, calm, and discovery
The Dr.-Konrad-Adenauer-Anlage will become an open reading living room in the park during StadtLesen. Between seating areas, books, and a summery park atmosphere, a space unfolds that makes literature accessible while maintaining concentration. This creates a culturally pedagogically valuable framework, especially for families: children listen, encounter an author meeting with an immediate voice, and experience how literature develops a strong narrative power even outdoors.
Why this reading works particularly well
I and all my selves speaks playfully and lightly about identity, polyphony, and childlike self-perception. Such themes realize their full effect at a reading: The author's voice structures tempo, humor, and emotion, while the audience absorbs every word almost physically. Andreas Thamm brings exactly the mixture of literary quality and closeness that takes young listeners seriously without losing the magic.
Location, time, and admission
The event will take place on Sunday, June 21, 2026, from 2:00 PM to 2:20 PM in the Dr.-Konrad-Adenauer-Anlage in Fürth. Admission is free. This makes the reading a low-threshold opportunity to discover literature live and use the StadtLesen Sunday as a family outing.
Conclusion: A brief appointment with great literary impact
This reading connects children's literature, authority from the literary scene, and the special atmosphere of a summer festival for books. Those who wish to experience Andreas Thamm will receive a concentrated, warm, and inspiring author encounter outdoors in Fürth. A visit is worthwhile for families, literature enthusiasts, and all who value vibrant reading culture.
