Marzahn Mon Amour is one of my favourite books. Very popular in @dublincitylibs.bsky.social since it won @dublinlitaward.bsky.social in 2023. I'm always recommending it to readers and bookclubs.
21/28

Feb is #ReadIndies month & each day I’ll feature a book from an indie publisher.

In Marzahn, Mon Amour by Katya Oskamp (trns Jo Heinrich) from Peirene Press a writer, struggling, retrains as a chiropodist, writes stories about her clients A love letter to East Berlin. Loved it.
