My favourites, in case you hadn't guessed, are Thomas Lehr and Peter Wawerzinek. And I'm disappointed that Nino Haratischwili's Juja didn't make it through. So she's now my favourite for the Hotlist. Yeah.
Translated extracts from the six titles will be online at signandsight soonish.

I can't believe Judith Zander made it onto that list! How did that happen?
Hi there, I am visiting Berlin for the first time for a short stay. Of course this is a perfect excuse to buy new books! What should I be reading? I don't speak hardly any German so pref English translations. I've already got a few suggestions from your site.
