The 2009 Nobel Prize in literature has been awarded to Herta Mueller, a Romanian-born German novelist, essayist and poet who was praised by the judges for depicting the "landscape of the dispossessed" with "the concentration of poetry and the frankness of prose." Read more...

HCPL does not currently own any of her work, but some of Mueller's books in translation may be borrowed through the Maryland state library resource known as "Marina." Any of your local HCPL branch librarians will be more than glad to assist you, or you may access the Marina system online from your home.

Titles in English translation include The Appointment, The Land of Green Plums, and Nadirs. (If you are searching the Marina catalog by author name, try spelling the last name with and without an "e"!)
