Nicolas Mahler Komplett Kafka

The graphic novel is an excellent introduction for anyone who wants to take a closer look at Kafka, or for those who think they know Kafka well enough. Mahler illustrates Kafka’s stories such as The Castle, The Metamorphosis, and Amerika with humour and a grotesque sensibility. In his drawings Mahler succeeds in expressing the inherent tragedy of the writings.

Article for reading

Tabletop Games Let the Games begin!

More board and card games are sold in Germany than in any other country. They guarantee fun, variety – and sometimes even divorce: an article about good moods and bad losers.

I really enjoy coming to the Goethe-Institut Jakarta library, particularly to study. It’s a quiet place with excellent facilities and a comfortable temperature. There are so many books to read—I mostly make use of the German as a Foreign Language (DaF) books. Aside from that, there are other awesome things on offer, like playing games and listening to music.
