A literary invitation to all who perceive reading as a way of life
Meike Winnemuth brings an evening to Göttingen with One More Page that celebrates literature not just as a topic but as an experience. At the Literaturhaus Göttingen, her smart, personal reading session meets the discussion stage of the Göttinger Literaturherbst – with a book that sees reading as a form of happiness, a space for thought, and a self-experiment.
Between reading, conversation, and literary closeness
The evening on October 8, 2026, begins at 7:00 PM and combines reading and discussion. Winnemuth talks about a summer marked by books, about texts ranging from Seneca, Tolstoy, Virginia Woolf, Sally Rooney, the Bible, to Fourth Wing – and about the question of what reading does to us. This promises to be more than just a book presentation; it will be an author encounter with literary depth and fine humor.

Meike Winnemuth: Journalistic precision and narrative curiosity
Winnemuth is not a voice from an ivory tower but an author with a journalistic background, clear observational skills, and a strong affinity for self-experiments. Her career spans editorial work, columns, travel books, and her bestseller The Big Win; in 2012, her blog The World Ahead of Me won an award at the Lead Awards and was also nominated for the Grimme Online Award. Her new book One More Page builds on this and focuses on the passion for reading. ([meikewinnemuth.de](https://www.meikewinnemuth.de/die-autorin/?utm_source=openai))

The Literaturhaus Göttingen is located at Nikolaistraße 22 in the city center and is easily accessible on foot, by bike, by bus, or by car. Bus stops such as Nikolaistraße, Kornmarkt, and Markt are within a short distance; parking is available, including in the parking garage at Hospitalstraße 8. The venue fits an evening that stages literature not as a backdrop but as a vibrant practice. ([literaturhaus-goettingen.de](https://www.literaturhaus-goettingen.de/besuch/))
