This is the most charming book I’ve read in German. The language is so clear and concise. It’s simply gorgeously written. I can’t wait to read it again. I may try to memorize portions of it.

Read for the Easy German Book Club. Absurd little stories about human failures to connect and communicate, not really for children.

finally putting my German degree to use... this collection of short stories was very cute and a great way to build my confidence in reading German again! I loved how they played with language, it was especially fun as someone reading this for language practice. Would recommend as an easy read for my fellow German major friends
