1.Cabaret works very well as a companion piece to the tagged book.Same setting with the backdrop of rising fascism.Both deeply unsettling given the current times.
2.Bookmarks,mugs and branded book bags from bookshops!
3.Interesting question!If it's nonfiction it doesn't matter ,but fiction I prefer it to be people my age.I should correct that!

1. Absolutely riveting tagged book
2. Probably Twins at At.Clares by Enid Blyton!
3." He was the rare German intellectual who dressed well"
@Leftcoastzen I just realized that I have read all your picks 😆 I gave 5âï¸ for Judith Hearne, 4âï¸ for Apartment in Athens, and 2âï¸ for my struggle with Kasebier #nyrbbookclub #nyrbclassics
so-so2âï¸ Gah, another difficult read in 2020! It took me ages to finish 🥴 Too many names, and chatters coming from all directions! The rise and fall of the Weimar Republic could be better delivered if the story was more structured and controlled
pickA dry, satirical look at the Berlin intelligentsia and upper class of 1930 and what happens when a mediocre Jewish Everyman becomes an overnight cabaret sensation (look, it was a slow news day). Tergit skewers the capitalist drive to make as much money as possible off the hot shit for the moment - a drive that still exists in ever-increasing amounts of media tie-in rubbish and branding in the 21st century.
