Kiran Nagarkar’s novels tell of postcolonial urban India – as does his unpublished book “Rest in Peace.” Nagarkar reads from what is the third part of his trilogy about Ravan and Eddie, two youths from Mumbai’s high-rise projects who try their luck in the music and film industry.

The German translation will be read by the actor Barnaby Metschurat.

Konkani Goan All Stars

Konkani Music, a mix of jazz, rock n roll, Latin American rhythms, Portuguese influences and pop-like tearjerkers, developed in Goa from the 1920s to the 1970s. On the trail of central figures such as trumpet player Chris Perry or the legendary singer Lorna, sound engineer Sigrid Pfeffer explored this incredible mix, compiling the CD “Konkani Songs” in 2009.
