Hopefully shelves have been scoured, reading material has been chosen, and everyone has a reading list for #germanlitmonth.
Remember anything that was originally written in German can be read during #germanlitmonth. This year books written in other languages, provided they are about Franz Kafka or inspired by him can be read during Kafka Reading Week (November 15-21).
The full schedule for the month is:
Nov 1-7 Crime Week
Nov 8-14 Read as You Please
Nov 15-21 Franz Kafka week
Nov 22-30 Read as You Please
As always there will be a week’s extension to catch up with any outstanding reviews, while this year’s author index is created. The best way to share those reviews and ensure they show up on the index is to leave a comment below. Alternatively advertise your reviews on Twitter (X), Bluesky, FB or Instagram using the hash tag #germanlitmonth.
With the admin sorted, all that remains is for Lizzy and I to welcome you to German Literature Month XIV and to wish you Viel Vergnügen!
