I'm going to fill the blanks by and by.<br /><br />Looking forward to reading more of your reviews, when you'll have the time.

But the Nobel Prize winners and their literature are always in my thoughts.<br /><br />Looking forward to reading a book by the new recipients. While I know of Peter Handke and his works, I've never read any of them. And Olga Tokarczuk hasn't been on my list, so far, either. But I'm sure they are both great authors.Marianne https://www.blogger.com/profile/11810275740213848634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4322995747669796194.post-80649872161065383372019-09-27T12:41:14.158+02:002019-09-27T12:41:14.158+02:00Yes, indeed, we seem to be the only ones left cont...Yes, indeed, we seem to be the only ones left contributing to the Nobel Prize page lol. <br /><br />Until reading <i>Crabwalk</i> I always shied from reading Günter Grass. Probably, the film version of <i>The Tin Drum</i> left too much of an unpleasant impression on me, who knows?<br /><br />By the way, my next review of a book from the pen of an en-NOBEL-ed writer is already in the pipeline... going on this evening her on <i>Edith's Miscellany</i>.<br /><br />Hope to read you again soon,<br />Edith.Edith LaGrazianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07885017198423641770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4322995747669796194.post-60268843124755650842019-09-26T13:51:08.649+02:002019-09-26T13:51:08.649+02:00Hi Edith,

I've visited his house in <a href="http://momobookblog.blogspot.com/2012/08/visiting-buddenbrook-house.html" rel="nofollow">Lübeck</a> where you can see a lot about his life.<br /><br />Anyway, <a href="http://momobookblog.blogspot.com/2012/09/grass-gunter-crabwalk.html" rel="nofollow">Crabwalk</a> is a great book and I'm glad you got to read and like it.<br /><br />"See" you again soon,<br />MarianneMarianne https://www.blogger.com/profile/11810275740213848634noreply@blogger.com
