American author Valerie Wilson Wesley presented her latest novels “Off-Road-Kids” and “Dying in the Dark” to an audience of 120 mainly younger literary enthusiasts in Leipzig's House of Books. The bilingual reading, with Wesley’s Berlin-based translator Gertraude Krueger as moderator and German voice, ended with a long and vivid discussion on writing, African Americans and American society.
