Ursula Hegi the Burgdorf Cycle Boxed Set: Floating in My Mother's Palm, Stones From the River, the Vision of Emma Blau. Children And Fire
“They planted flowers to attract butterflies: Gänseblümchen—daisies and Lavendel and Ringelblumen—marigold.
Thekla used to buy corn for the street pigeons whenever she could afford it, but now, with her teacher’s salary, she can every week. Can afford to buy decent food for herself and give money to Mutti, who does Thekla’s laundry. Across her dresser, she has spread the table runner Mutti embroidered for her. Almut Jansen’s embroidery is treasured in Burgdorf, and she sells it at the Christmas ...market. She also barters it for groceries from Weiler’s store, books from the pay-library, and medical advice from Frau Doktor Rosen.
Franz raises his hand. “How many kilometers to Berlin, Fräulein?”
