TITLE: Briefwechsel

More about it

AUTHOR: Günter Kunert

DESCRIPTION: Der Lyriker, Erzähler und Essayist Günter Kunert bevorzugt in seinen Radiostücken das Spiel mit Fiktionen. In diesem Hörspiel inszeniert er einen boshaft-witzigen Schlagabtausch in Briefform zwischen einem älteren Herrn und einer feschen Briefträgerin, die in seiner Fantasie eine Rolle zu spielen beginnt, bis umgekehrt auch er in ihrer Vorstellung einen Platz einnimmt, von dem er allerdings so real nicht geträumt hat. Eine von Herrn Lamsbach erdachte Nichte muss für beide als Medium herhalten, aber am Ende bleibt ungewiss, ob nicht schon der realistische Beginn des Stückes eine reine Fiktion war oder ob nicht Herr Lamsbach das Opfer seiner eigenen Fiktionen geworden sein könnte.

Radio drama, old-time radio and historic broadcasts from the Internet Archive (its Old Time Radio collection with the Old Time Radio Researchers' sets, WWII Era Audio Recordings, the Pacifica Radio Archives, the Radio Haiti Archive, German radio plays and listeners' uploads), Wikimedia Commons (with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision's broadcasts) and the Library of Congress. Every episode plays from its archive, which this site does not copy; rights are as each archive states them. Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is. Horror, crime, war and westerns are for teenage and adult profiles, racist caricature for adults only, and children’s profiles hear what was made for children. More about these archives.
