Revised City Library Initiative Unveiled

In the heart of Giessen, a city known for its tranquillity, an unexpected twist has unfolded. Commissioner Kowalski has found himself investigating a brutally mutilated corpse in a demolition house, leading him down a dark labyrinth of the past. This chilling case has caught the attention of the city's residents, promising an air of mystery that hangs heavy in the autumn air.

As the investigation continues, connections to the past are beginning to surface. Dagmara Bosch, a renowned television journalist, has linked the Cologne case to the mysterious accident in which her father died in 1980. The city is abuzz with speculation, as Bosch delves deeper into the secrets of the past, promising to unravel the tangled threads of this intriguing mystery.

Literature enthusiasts, however, have a different cause for excitement. On October 30, the city council chamber will play host to "The Magician" by Magdalena Parys. This novel, translated from Polish by Lothar Quinckenstein, was awarded the European Union Literature Prize in 2015. Tickets for this highly anticipated event can be purchased from September 14th via the Giessen Crime Festival's website.

For those with a taste for music, Tess Wiley, a Texan-born singer-songwriter, will perform at the city library on November 6 as part of the "Library's Stage" event series. Meanwhile, the author Kristine Bilkau will appear on November 6 as part of the "Bühne der Stadtbibliothek" series in a musical evening event at the City Library of Gießen.

For those with a penchant for crime fiction, Erwin Müller's true-crime novel "Death Transit - The Stippbachtal Murder Case" will be presented at the city library on November 20. This novel is based on a real, unsolved criminal case from 1981, promising a gripping tale that mirrors the current investigation in the city.

Amidst all this excitement, the city library is also celebrating the "Day of Libraries" on October 24. This national celebration promises a day filled with events and activities, making it the perfect opportunity for residents to immerse themselves in the literary and musical delights that Giessen has to offer.

As the autumn leaves fall and the days grow shorter, Giessen promises a season of intrigue, mystery, and cultural enrichment. Whether you're a crime enthusiast, a literature lover, or a music aficionado, there's something for everyone in this charming city.
