I read books in German and English. I try to explore a wide range of literature, especially fiction, and I also like challenging texts. In general, all periods and genres, with a preference for postmodern literature. I also like magical realism, sci-fi, and sometimes fantasy.

Lese auf deutsch und auf englisch. Ich versuche, mir ein möglichst weites Feld an Literatur, vor allem der Belletristik, zu erschließen; es darf gerne auch mal herausfordernd sein. Grundsätzlich alle Epochen, alle Genres, mit besonderer Vorliebe für die Postmoderne. Magischer Realismus und Sci-Fi gerne, phantastisches manchmal.
