Pong lives! With a resounding cheer, the lovable, eccentric hero of Sibylle Lewitscharoff's story "Pong" has thrown himself into the arms of the moon at the end of the tale and, contrary to the readers' fears, survived this daring leap from the roof. Now he lies in the hospital, with all the time in the world to indulge in his thoughts, which mainly revolve around mysterious objects he keeps at home. "Pong," awarded the Ingeborg Bachmann Prize in 1998, brought Sibylle Lewitscharoff to the attention of the literary public. With "Pong redivivus," Sibylle Lewitscharoff and Friedrich Meckseper have created a powerful work of art in language and imagery of a magical kind.
