• Other talk, discussion, reading
Hacke has written several thousand columns over many decades, 
especially in Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazin, plus more than thirty books. 
And what does he do now? He tells us how he did it. He also reads 
to us. But because he can't read everything (at least not in one evening), he only reads the best, yes, actually, the very best, the most amusing, the most thought-provoking, the wisest, the very wisest, so that we can 
say: He has actually spent his entire life as an author preparing for 
this evening, yes, exactly: for the best evening, no, the 
very best. 


Axel Hacke lives as a writer in Munich. He is famous for his column 
The best from around the world, which he has published every Friday in the Süddeutsche Zeitung magazine 
for decades. His books are bestsellers. His 
work has been awarded the Joseph Roth Prize, two Egon Erwin Kisch
Prizes, the Theodor Wolff Prize and, most recently, the Ben Witter Prize 2019
