Little Man, What Now? (Penguin Modern Classics)

Little Man, What Now? is a heart-wrenching and humorous portrayal of one of European literature's most touching couples in 1930s Berlin.

This brilliant new translation by Michael Hofmann brings to life an entire era of austerity and turmoil in Weimar Germany.

The novel follows the story of a young couple, Lämmchen and 'Boy', as they try to survive amid bullying bosses, unpaid bills, monstrous mothers-in-law, and Nazi streetfighters.

Despite the challenges they face, their love for each other remains strong, but will it be enough to overcome the darkness that is fast approaching? This inspiring work of literature is a must-read for anyone who has ever felt trapped in a world that seems beyond their control.
