The new Emsland &#8220;lures&#8221; the refugees from the East with work and land. The school and youth book written by non-fiction author G\u00fcnter Brinkmann in 1959 deals with the fate of an East German refugee family, which was widespread at the time. The loss of their homeland, the arrival in a new environment, the family&#8217;s initial existential hardships and the new start in the moorland settlement describe a path in life that many &#8220;new Emslanders&#8221; took at the time. The non-fiction book is based on two real-life stories of a family of farmhands and a refugee family from Hesepertwist. Under the working title &#8220;Peter and the Emsland&#8221;, Brinkmann submitted it to Emsland GmbH for review. It has been used as an educational aid in school lessons and school radio since 1959. Nora K\u00fchnlein and Meppen-born Stephan W. M\u00fcller read and perform excerpts from the novel, lending the text a special liveliness. The two actors live in Frankfurt am Main and have often performed together on stage &#8211; including as permanent ensemble members at the Zimmertheater Rottweil, at the Heppenheim Festival and currently at the Kammerspiele Wiesbaden.         <\/p>\n<p>The staged reading will be acoustically accompanied by &#8220;foley artist&#8221; and sound designer Nils Herrmann, who has already worked as a foley artist for several film and television productions, including Sketch History (ZDF). In the staged reading, the sounds will be created live, right in front of the audience&#8217;s eyes and ears. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The reading is a world premiere.<\/p>\n<p>Place: City Museum Meppen<\/p>\n<p>Time: 7 pm<\/p>\n<p>Admission: 13 \u20ac<\/p>\n<p>Registration: call 05931 153 278 or send an e-mail to<\/p>\n<p>info@stadtmuseum-meppen.de<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reading: &#8220;New land for Peter Quast&#8221;.
