23 May, 4 pm: Reading from Mo & Moritz<\/em><\/span><\/h2>[vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

In her YA novel “Mo & Moritz,” renowned Austrian author Julya Rabinowich tells the story of a budding romance between two young men who could hardly be more different. Mo comes from a Muslim refugee family and, against all expectations, lands an apprenticeship at a prestigious hair salon. Moritz \u2014 who also goes by Mo \u2014 is from a Jewish family still living with the trauma of the Shoah. After meeting at the Vienna Opera Ball (Mo is working there as a hairdresser, Moritz is a guest), a tender love story unfolds that crosses every social boundary and cultural divide.<\/p>\n

Written in clear, poetic prose, Julya Rabinowich crafts a story of a love that overcomes all opposites.<\/p>\n
