Sapienti Sat

I'm part of a highly exclusive book club consisting of two friends and myself. In turns, each one of us suggests a book. We all read it and meet and discuss it after having finished reading. The last one we read was my suggestion. "Die Geschwister Oppermann" (The Oppermanns: A novel) by the German author Lion Feuchtwanger. It was first published in 1933, the year Hitler was appointed chancellor of Germany. The novel tells the story of four jewish siblings and their families in the years 1932/1933 against the background of the nazi seizure of power.

The next book we'll read is "Cannery Row" by the American Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck. I already ordered it from England via ChooseBooks. I hope it'll be delivered soon...
