“Reich-Ranicki in criticism - A controversial quartet discusses his work“
To celebrate the opening of the temporary exhibition "Marcel Reich-Ranicki. One Life, Many Roles", the German Exile Archive 1933–1945 invited four renowned literary critics to the German National Library in Frankfurt am Main for a critical and entertaining debate.
On 23 June 2022, Elke Heidenreich, Hubert Spiegel, Volker Weidermann and Uwe Wittstock discussed the published works of their famous colleague. They talked about Reich-Ranicki’s books “Herz, Arzt und Literatur” (1987), “Lauter Verrisse” (1970), “Meine Schulzeit im Dritten Reich” (1982), “Thomas Mann und die Seinen” (1987) as well as his autobiography “Mein Leben” (1999).
