Summer Reading 2022
Summer is here, and our list of new German literature in translation is perfect for the beach, the park, or just your air-conditioned apartment. From the dark psychological hues of Juli Zeh’s New Year, to the whimsical reflections on identity and home in Where You Come From by Saša Stanišic, to Bernhard Schlink’s sweeping novel Olga, these newly translated books represent some of Germany’s most engaging authors. We also have a newly translated classic text, the Correspondence, 1939-1969 of Theodor Adorno and Gershom Scholem, which captures these formidable philosophers in a more personable mood. All are available at our library, so stop by, say hi, and borrow a book.
