The cover of my edition of Die Tante Jolesch

Starting my reading year with an almost forgotten classic: Die Tante Jolesch (Auntie Jolesch. The Decline of the West in anecdotes) by Friedrich Torberg.

Although it is, in a way, a melancholic book, I already had to laugh out loud over the first pages.
