In September, Berlin once again becomes the capital of literature: At the ilb, readings, talks, and debates bring together international voices\u2014from prose to nonfiction, from poetry to graphic novels.

And if you don\u2019t want to head home right after an event: In Mitte and around the Tiergarten, it\u2019s rarely far to the nearest Sp\u00e4ti for a quick break.<\/p>\n
