Der Schrifsteller Aron Boks im Gespräch mit Unser HaNeu Ice cream with Halle’s writer-in-residence Aron Boks: Was there a stronger sense of community in the past—or not?
Ice cream parlors are actually perfect meeting places. After all, all walks of life meet here, thinks Aron Boks and licks a pistachio ball with relish. Aron Boks is a writer, columnist, poetry slamer and this year’s town clerk of Halle until the end of September. For this task, he set the search for community as a topic and visited various meeting places in the city for his research. So it’s high time for a meeting with us in Halle-Neustadt.

We invited Aron Boks to talk and he put us on a scoop of ice cream.
