»Lesen ohne Atomstrom – Die Erneuerbaren Lesetage«
Beim Hamburger Festival »Lesen ohne Atomstrom – Die Erneuerbaren Lesetage« (22.4. - 27.4.) präsentiert der Star-Autor Frank Schätzing seinen neuen Roman »Breaking News«, gemeinsam mit dem israelischen Schriftsteller Uri Avnery und ZEIT-Kulturreporter Christof Siemes. »Breaking News« ist ein Politthriller, der die Wurzeln des Nahostkonflikts erfahrbar macht: Romanfigur ist der Starreporter Tom Hagen, der stets an vorderster Front dabei ist. Bis Hagen in Afghanistan in einer einzigen, mörderischen Nacht alles verliert. Renommee, Geld, Zukunft. Drei Jahre später bietet sich in Israel die Gelegenheit zum Comeback. Doch was ein journalistischer Coup zu werden verspricht, entwickelt sich unversehens zu einer Hetzjagd durch die explosivste Region der Welt. Auf der Flucht vor Geheimagenten und Killern kämpft Hagen ums nackte Überleben – gegen eine Verschwörung, deren Anfänge ins koloniale Palästina zurückreichen. Mit »Breaking News« begibt sich Frank Schätzing, dessen Bestseller »Der Schwarm« Millionenauflagen erreicht hat, auf neues Terrain: »Mein Kopf fühlt sich immer dort am wohlsten, wo ich noch nie war«, sagt der 56-Jährige, der für »Lesen ohne Atomstrom« ohne Gage in der Laeiszhalle auftritt.
