Featuring Michelle Steinbeck and Michael Fehr, two of the most exciting writers on the Swiss literary scene and winners of major national literary awards. This special evening, part of the Literally Swiss event series, will be followed by wine, music and of course, Swiss chocolate.

Michelle Steinbeck and Michael Fehr are unforgettable wordsmiths and performers, feted across Switzerland as champions of live performance and outstanding writing – musical, hypnotic, surreal, widely published.
