Babel Guide to German Fiction in English Translation

4/5 ( ratings)

The Babel guide has 100 original reviews of books by leading authors from Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Each review provides a kind of trailer for the work and is followed by an excerpt as a taster, to let potential readers have an idea as to whether a work might suit them. Alongside big names of German literature such as Berholt Brecht, Thomas Mann, Hermann Hesse, and Gunter Grass - are younger writers like Elfriede Jellinek, Thomas Bernhard, and Patrick Susskind. With the reviews comes a database of German fiction translated in the UK since 1950, with original titles and current prices. This is the fourth in a series of accessible guides to world fiction available in English translation, aimed at journalists, academics, teachers and the ordinary reader.
