I can usually piece together what a news article's about, but literary texts with a rich language full of verbal humour sound like something that will always be above my pay grade.

    let me give you another incentive: in Lower Saxony there is the largest bird park (zoo specialised on birds) in the world: the Weltvogelpark Walsrode, where they exhibit birds you won't see anywhere else in the world in captivity. If that won't lure you, I don't know what.


    Well.

    Thank you for telling me about that. While I'm not a big fan of keeping birdies in captivity in general, that's a LOT OF birdies in one place, and it looks like they are taken good care of. Must. Visit.

    By the way, do you want a plot blurb to Prinzessin Insomnia? Or any of the other books?
    Thanks, but I think I should be able to handle that much with a decent dictionary. And if not… Well, that's gonna be on me.
