With approx. 207,000 words (print edition approx. 850 pages), it is designed for advanced learners who want to move beyond exercises, short excerpts, and exam-style texts - and read sustained German with confidence.Follow the Hartwig family from post-war reconstruction to contemporary Germany in 2025. The novels are immersive and realistic, with clear narrative structure and continuous C1-level prose. History and politics are present, but never lectured: they enter naturally through work, media, family conversations, documents, and personal decisions.Across the five novels you'll encounter:¿ a criminal investigation linked to unresolved events from the past¿ family histories revealed through letters and documents, including correspondence from Israel and life in a kibbutz¿ the long shadow of political violence (including the 1972 Munich Olympic terror attack)¿ professional and moral conflicts in journalism, education, and public life¿ travel beyond Germany - from Corfu to Namibia - where routine is disrupted by small, believable incidentsA distinctive final volume: C1.5 (2025)The last book deliberately shifts focus to modern, real-world German as it is used today: news and broadcast language, public and administrative German, indirect political speech, and everyday conversations shaped by caution, fatigue, and adaptation.What this omnibus includes:¿ Five complete C1 volumes (C1.1-C1.5)¿ short English introductions before each volume (orientation only)¿ German-only main texts written consistently at C1 level¿ chapter summaries + comprehension questions with full-sentence answersMost learners meet C1 German only in fragments. This book offers something rarer: long-form immersion, where vocabulary and structures become familiar through context, repetition, and returning characters.Read steadily - and let German become normal. German-English interlinear omnibus ebook editions are also available. Author of German Easy Reader Super 500 and more German readers.
