PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION
A reflection on a year in Germany, literary and finely tuned to culture, stereotype and self. The book is a rather mystifying mix of observation, literary analysis and philosophical musing. Gorra (who wrote After Empire: Scott, Naipaul, Rushdie) teaches English at Smith College.
