A literary afternoon at Ammersee with humor, attitude, and smart questions

Hans Sigl invites you to Talk Fast Forward, a conversation afternoon that uniquely combines literature, wisdom, and stage presence. On August 27, 2026, at Groundlift Ammersee Live Studios, the actor's reliable hosting role meets the narrative power of Ildikó von Kürthy - one of the most read voices in contemporary German literature.

When literature becomes a meeting

This event is not a classic reading but a author encounter with a conversational character. The format thrives on closeness, pace, and the art of making big topics feel light without shrinking them. Von Kürthy is known for novels and books that intertwine daily observations, self-irony, and emotional precision - a style that has reached readers for years.

Conversation culture instead of stage routine

Hans Sigl leads through an afternoon that focuses on openness and rhythm. The audience experiences a reading atmosphere that feels more immediate than distant: questions about midlife, change, relationships, and personal freedom are at the center. It is precisely in this mix of charm and depth that Talk Fast Forward unfolds its literary quality.

A voice of contemporary literature

Ildikó von Kürthy is considered by the publisher to be one of the most read German authors. Her books have sold millions of copies and been translated into many languages.

The evening promises not only entertainment but also cultural context and inspiring impulses.
