thanks for having me ACF London Andrea Capovilla @ibc-london.bsky.social ! & Ben's book is well worth reading. We should write up/record why little #Liechtenstein is key to understanding 'German' history 😉🇱🇮
Ben's book - the great Liechtenstein novel - was picked out by #NewBooksInGerman New Books in German NBG-Sarah & translated by Uni Shef Languages students in their exams during lockdown 😁
Reading up on literary #Liechtenstein ready to listen to Benjamin Quaderer tonight ACF London Andrea Capovilla @ibc-london.bsky.social been a few years since I was in the microstate, but remember the big false teeth factory 😬
