Works, letters and thoughts by Astrid Lindgren

What do the children of Bullerbyn have to do with Bob Dylan's Blowin' In The Wind? Let yourself be surprised!


With texts from Pippi Longstocking, personal letters and Astrid Lindgren's war diaries, Andrea Cleven, Isabelle Höpfner and Thomas Hollaender transport you into the cheerful and thoughtful world of the world-famous Swedish author.

Five songs, performed by Verena Bonnkirch, embrace Lindgren's literary cosmos, resonate within it and make it resonate. The singer is accompanied by fifteen-year-old pianist Kasimir Neudeck.


Intelligent quick-wittedness and humour were characteristic traits of Lindgren. She held both up to the world and her century. An attitude that gives courage in disturbing times. Then as now.


Experience an unforgettable evening of literature and music.
