In winter time I usually have a flowering pot plant or two to bring joy to the everyday life.
November cactus or Christmas cactus? No idea, but Schlumbergera it is
and in white my favourite. I have one recently bought hanging in my kitchen
and another from last year in my utility room.
Recently I have read a couple of interesting books.
Selja Ahava's wonderful Woman who loved insects is a fiction based on the life of
German born Maria Sibylla Merian (1647-1717). The writer’s magical realism lets Maria
live for 370 years and this way how our life and worldview have changed through the centuries.
Merian’s drawings are amazing!
Then I read Deutsches Haus by German Anette Hess, also a brilliant novel telling about
the so called Auschwitz trials in Frankfurt in the mid 1960s.
