Bachmann.Celan.Letters.

The letters of Ingeborg Bachmann and Paul Celan reflect the relationship of two outstanding German-language poets who loved and wounded each other, were dependent on one another, and yet could not lead a life together. Juergen Maurer and Maria Köstlinger, ensemble members of the Theater in der Josefstadt, bring this extraordinary correspondence to life.
