Product Description

Book Description

The eight stories in this volume offer a varied and representative collection of twentieth century German authors from a range of political and cultural backgrounds. Styles include the non-fictional manner of Kluge's montage technique and the contrasting classical storytelling of Penzoldt. With reading notes and parallel texts in German and English, this anthology is valuable to the German student of English as well as the English student of German. Reflecting trends in German literature, the stories have been selected for their quality as well as their readability, and will enhance the appreciation of both languages.

First Sentence
ICH sammle Kellner, sagte der mitteilsame Fremde, der sich unaufgefordert zu mir an den Tisch gesetzt hatte, ich sammle sie mit Liedenschaft wie andere Leute Fayencen, Hinterglasbilder oder Geigenschnecken, was ich freilich immer als barbarisch empfunden habe. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars An enjoayble way of improving your German, Nov 4 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: #2 German Short Stories (Paperback)
As an intermediate learner of German, I have found the book very useful in that it provides parallel translation as you go (the left page is in German and the right one in English). The translation is superb. The selected stories are finest examples of the contemporary German literature, Let the book carry you away and polish your German at the same time! :o)

1.0 out of 5 stars Kindle owners: Do not get fooled!, July 15 2011
By Fernando de Magalhaes Coutinho Vieira - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This ebook is worthless for Kindle users.

There are many options to make this an useful book for Kindle owners, but the solution from Amazon is the worst possible one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for getting comfortable with written German., Aug 15 2008
By Trish - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: #2 German Short Stories (Paperback)
This little book is a collection of charming short stories. One can either read them or study them closely to enlarge vocabulary and learn to understand grammer. It is also a good exercise in the use of synonyms.
