@Funktious@mastodon.scot I don't read much modern fiction, however, if I may, I'd like to recommend please Stig Dagerman's absolutely brilliant "German Autumn" (@uminnpress@bird.makeup). "First published in Sweden in 1947, German Autumn, a collection of Stig Dagerman’s articles on Germany immediately after the fall of the Third Reich, was unlike any other reporting at the time." #bookstodon https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/german-autumn
