‘Dazzling Bubbles’ | ‘Nur Mut’ Book Club

A book club on the theme of fear: Why do stories that get under our skin fascinate us? What can we learn from them? Annik Hosmann (Readtreat), Fabian Weingartner (Silent Reading Rave) and Nicole Schmid (Litar) present a selection of books in which fear drives the plot. Whether graphic novels, short stories, memoirs or dark family epics, the selected books explore different facets of fear – ranging from everyday psychological strain and experiences of loss to supernatural horror.
