For Das Narr #33, the magazine dedicates itself for the first time to a single theme: the Swiss writer Adelheid Duvanel. Born in Basel in 1936, Duvanel is known for her concise, unsettling prose and quietly haunting worlds. Though highly regarded by those familiar with her work, she remains largely overlooked. This issue aims to reintroduce her voice to a broader audience while reflecting on her presence in contemporary literature. Seventeen authors contribute texts that respond to Duvanel’s life and work in different ways—through essays, fiction, imagined encounters, and literary homages. Alongside these, the issue includes a previously unpublished typescript by Duvanel and a selection of her vivid felt-tip pen drawings, reprinted in a continuous image sequence. With texts by Katja Brunner, Patricia Büttiker, Dorothea Dieckmann, Pino Dietiker, Lukas Gloor, Annina Haab, Johanna Hühn, Yael Inokai, Judith Keller, Friederike Kretzen, Erin Mallon, Valerie-Katharina Meyer, Samuel Moser, Anna Ospelt, Susanne Tägder, Lilith Tiefenbacher, Ulrike Ulrich, and Luke Wilkins.
