Diogenesverlag has published a picture book by Hazel Brugger and Thomas Spitzner. It is a large-format collection of entries from their blog ‘Deutschland was geht’ (Germany, what's up?), lovingly illustrated by Jannes Weber. Even if you don't know the blog, it's still fun to look at because the characters and the colourful hustle and bustle on the ostrich farm, in the gym, on the beach or at the weekly market have been captured in a lively way. Speaking of the weekly market: kadó is immortalised there with a liquorice stand, and Ilse-bilse is standing casually in front of it, talking shop with the customers – aww. I feel very honoured – thank you very much Hazel, Thomas and Jannes!
And if you want to enjoy episode #3 of the above-mentioned blog again, which shows Hazel's spontaneous visit to kadó, take a look here...
