New Penguin Parallel Texts: Short Stories in German

This new volume of eight short stories, with parallel translations, offers students of German at all levels the opportunity to enjoy a wide range of contemporary literature, without having constantly to refer back to a dictionary.

 

The majority of these stories have been published in the last decade and reflect a rich variety of themes and styles, from Georg Klein’s and Gabriel Wohmann’s explorations of nationality and change, to Judith Hermann’s poignant tale of the end of relationship.
