Erich Kästner's amusing story in diary form "The Little Border Traffic", begun in 1937 and published in 1938 under completely changed political circumstances, is pure reading pleasure.


Erich Kästner succeeds in developing an autobiographical starting point during the Salzburg Festival against the backdrop of National Socialism and the Alpine panorama into a summer love story with violent, sometimes absurdly funny complications and a good portion of silliness.

With this story, Hans-Jürgen Schatz, who has been familiar with Erich Kästner's materials, tone and humor for over thirty years, invites you to a summer pleasure that is popular in every season.
