    1. As always, you are welcome, Sue. I see on your blog you have already devoured three books this year?
      The "Ulenspiegel" is a European classic, comparable with Sterne's "Tristram Shandy" and Grimmelshausen's "Simplicissimus".

  2. I have. And am well into the fourth. I really need to get back to the classics - which involves rereading and some further exploration.

    1. Enjoy. I did in the last week of 2020 by re-reading the Decamerone and some Canterbury Tales.
