My second Keun. This one's a portrait of pre-WWII German society, seen through the eyes of 19-year old Sanna, who struggles in this new world where neighbors denounce neighbors, colleagues denounce colleagues, aunts denounce nieces. Set in 1936, published by Keun in exile in 1937, and yet it reads like a novel that's been written after WWII, with so much hindsight.
As before, Keun writes with so much wit and charm, an again, the German audiobook is exceptionally narrated by Camilla Renschke.
