Where to get these books
Support your local bookshop (UK) (or find your local bookshop in the US) (many do online ordering).
Can you help make this list better?
To keep the list to a manageable size I’ve arbitrarily limited it to contemporary fiction (written after 1989) in the English language (incl. translations into English), and first in series only.
- Have you read any of these books? What did you think of them?
- Know any books that should be on this list (fiction, post-1989, actually about life in the GDR – more than a few scenes set there, in English)?
Have I missed anything? Please let me know if you think I’ve missed a novel set in the GDR.
