With *Das Narrenschiff*, Christoph Hein most recently produced a brilliant social novel in 2025 that moved many people and became a bestseller. *Der fremde Freund* – published in West Germany under the title *Drachenblut* – marked the literary breakthrough of this successful author in 1982.


Translated into over 20 languages since then, the novella has become a classic that, through precise observation and language, brings the inner world of a society to life. Together, Anja Schneider and PC Nackt powerfully expand on this inner topography. Reduced to voice and piano, music and language create the characters, spaces and stage setting in the listener’s mind. “I am not afraid of dying. For me, it is worse not to be alive.”
