Small Machine by Demi Anter

Small Machine Anter, Demi Buy Now Demi Anter's Small Machine is an intimate portrayal of young womanhood and coming of age in an unforgiving city, the capital known as much for raucous hedonism as it is for Kaffee-und-Kuchen. Small Machine documents Anter’s early years in Berlin as a sort-of-Ausländerin. The first-generation daughter of German- speaking immigrants raised in the U.S., Anter explores the tension of returning to the city her grandfather was born in, where her father was stationed, as an adult disconnected from her family history. New York Times bestselling author Chanel Miller calls it "strikingly luminous and soothing." I think love is a many-headed beast waiting to fool you into trying. Lurking under the newspaper, in broom cupboards. Waiting on park benches, cigarettes drooping from his glossy mouth.
