Reading German Books in 2020 discussion

Hi all,
I didn't want to join the group until I'd read one book at least and I finished that today, Peter Stamm's 'The Sweet Indifference of the World.' I liked it, liked the writing, found the topic interesting but I wanted more, I often find that with novellas. I'd read more by him though if anyone has a recommendation.

I'm only reading from the library and my own shelves this year so am a little restricted on my choice but am hoping to get to some of the following;
Alina Bronsky 'The Hottest Dishes of the Tartar Cusine'
Jenny Erpenbeck 'The End of Days'
Eric Maria Remarque 'All Quiet on the Western Front'
Bernard Schlink 'The Reader'
Conventional choices I know but several of these I've wanted to read for a while.

I'm proud, Peter Stam is a Swiss autor! So good.

Johanna do you have any recommendations? My library has a few Stamm available.

You mean other Stamm books or swiss autors? And your are reading in English?

Yes, Peter Stamm books although other Swiss author recommendations are always welcome and yes, I’ll be reading in English.

Second book completed and it was perfect for these crazy times, Adalbert Stifter’s Rock Crystal. A seventy page novella that reads like a fable about a small valley and one of its families in particular a brother and sister who, the day before Christmas, cross a mountain to see their grandmother. I won’t say more than that except that I enjoyed it especially the descriptions of ice. Short but sweet.
