On 24 September 2026, author Judith Schalansky visits LiteraturHaus in Copenhagen to discuss her book 'Catalogue of Certain Losses' with Philipp Ostrowicz. With great linguistic precision, she explores what is lost, what is preserved, and what lives on in stories.

Schalansky's work has been translated into numerous languages. Her oeuvre includes 'Atlas of Remote Islands', the novel 'The Giraffe's Neck', and 'Catalogue of Certain Losses', which was shortlisted for the International Booker Prize. The latter was published in Danish in June 2026 in Jacob Jonias's translation by Palomar.

The conversation focuses on literature as the art of preservation, the fascination with loss, and how stories emerge. The event takes place in German with Danish summaries. Doors open at 18:15, and the discussion begins at 18:30.
