His Excellency Firat Sunel is not only the Turkish Ambassador to India but also a successful writer whose books have been translated into numerous languages. We were therefore delighted that Mr. Sunel agreed to read from two of his books at the German Embassy School. What was originally planned as a reading turned into a very exciting and entertaining evening, during which Mr. Sunel answered questions from Principal Martin van Neerven as well as from the large audience. Over wine and small snacks, discussions about literature, language, and the concept of „Heimat“ continued even after the reading. Further cultural events are in preparation.
