Everybody reads

The structures of the publishing scene may be centuries old, but they have begun to move. Works from marginalized populations are finding their way into the reading rooms of the republic thanks to a fresh scene of magazines, clubs, and social media channels. 
 

Verzweifeln Sie bitte nicht,
wenn Sie das alles nicht gleich begreifen

Please do not despair, if you do not understand all this right away.
Charlotte Krafft „Die Hyperironie“ (from „Das Wetter“ #13, October 2017, S. 37+)
