  • Day and time: Monday 12:15 - 13:15
    Weekly
  • Length of course: 3 terms. Autumn (10 Weeks), Spring (10 Weeks), Summer (7 Weeks)
  • Number of places: 16
  • Start date: 11 October 2021
  • Description:

    We will read and translate 'Als Hitler das rosa Kaninchen stahl', a paperback by Judith Kerr - make sure to buy the German version. We will read it slowly, analysing one or two sentences each week to explain, and sometimes expand on the grammar and I will correct pronunciation where necessary. I have recordings of some parts of the book. The story is based on Judith Kerr's childhood and is episodic, so lends itself to being read slowly in class with no danger of losing the plot. The course is aimed at people with 2 - 3 years of German, and would also be good for anyone wanting to brush up rusty German.
