Explore the work (Thai Translations) of acclaimed German Authors Bernhard Schlink and Judith Hermann
Not only a book can provide a heartfelt, wonderstruck story, but it can also serve as a reflection on culture, background, and identity of each character. Bernhard Schlink, the author of ‘The Reader’ (Der Vorleser) and
Judith Hermann, the author of ‘Home’ (Daheim), are the two German contemporary authors whose books flawlessly capture perspective and living conditions of the Germans during certain historical time, while mingling vivid narrative of landscape in Germany.
