To mark the launch of the new DW Books channel on YouTube, Meet the Germans presenter Rachel Stewart decided to have a rummage around some German bookshelves. What sort of books do Germans love to read? How come books are so expensive here? And why are the titles often upside-down?
Rachel moved from the UK to Germany in 2016. As a relative newcomer she casts a fresh eye over German clichés and shares her experiences of settling into German life. Every two weeks she explores a new topic — from beer to nudity to complicated grammar.
