I know, I promised to present some new book ideas from last week’s Frankfurt Book Fair. Unfortunately, there was just not enough time during the past few days. So, next week :). But here’s a nice video that captured the atmosphere in Frankfurt very nice. Anyone who wants to join me next year? I wish […]

I have a new addiction while traveling – listening to audio books! Here are the books I already heard via my Audible account: The Commissar Dupin series by Jean-Luc Bannalec, read by Gerd Wameling… I already listened to episodes 2 and 3 (I read the first one as a ’standard‘ book) and have the fourth

I saw the beautiful, precise, shocking, sad and thoughtful Swedish documentary Every Face Has A Name on the Filmfest Hamburg this week and can only strongly recommend it. Watching it, one cannot look down anymore, seeing the same things happening again those days… HERE is the trailer. „On April 28, 1945, life begins again. Hundreds

Pic by Franzi. The last days in Hamburg felt pretty much like autumn: Yellow leaves, spicy air and raindrops on the windows. Now I am the first day in Vienna – I even have a cheap ticket for the Wiener Staatsballett tonight! I guess this will make myself enjoy autumn even more! I wish you
Pic by Franzi. Jean-Luc Bannalec’s crime series around commissar Dupin – a policeman from Paris, who is coffee-addicted and reassigned to serve in Brittany – is a new passion of mine. Lately I have to travel a lot by bus. Unfortunately I am not able to read in cars or busses since I feel sick

Pic by Franzi. Yes, I read another book: Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Alborn! This one was the summer read of my literature club. Actually, the book lay already unread in my flat for several months. So I was extremely happy to finally be forced to make it through it. The story is incredible, but

Pic by Franzi. A am really into novels about women mastering their unique way of life, ending either tragic or succesful and happy. The book Das kunstseidene Mädchen/The artificial silk girl by Irmgard Keun falls into the first category. I found a used copy in one of my favorite book shops in Hamburg. This is
