An evening. A pub. A poetry book. An author. And fourteen friends read their favorite poems.
For 30 years, Matthias Politycki has set his own tone in his poems. An anthology of all his poems from 2017 - 1987 were published in a anthology. To celebrate this book release, the author invited friends, acquaintances and companions to his local pub in Hamburg. 14 guests presented a piece from the anthology. We have recorded these 14 episodes of "poems that work in every pub".
