From the cover flap –
When published in 1936, Die Deutsche Novelle 1800-1993 won wide acclaim as a text for intermediate reading classes and four courses in modern German literature. Skillful selection accomplished the editor’s purpose of presenting works of only the highest literary quality.
Now, a new expanded and revised edition of Die Deutsche Novelle brings the standard down to our day. It follows the development of German literature from naturalism to the work of such contemporary writers as Bergengruen, Langgasser, Borchert, and Boll. At the same time, it makes possible the study of the German Novelle as a separate literary genre.
