The Invention of Curried Sausage is an ingenious, revealing, and delightful novel about the invention of a popular German sidewalk food. Uwe Timm has heard claims that currywurst first appeared in Berlin in the 1950s, but he seems to recall having eaten it much earlier, as a boy in his native Hamburg, at a stand owned and operated by Lena Br cker. He decides to check it out. Although the discovery of curried sausage is eventually explained, it is its prehistory - about how Lena Br cker met, seduced and held captive a German deserter in Hamburg, in April, 1945, just before the war's end-that is the tastiest part. Timm draws gorgeous details from Lena's fine-grained recollections, and the pleasure these provide her and the reader supply the tale's real charm.Binding Type: Paperback

Best socks for work or working out.

Great socks. They stay on your heel! Love the material; breathable and not thick. Love the neutral tone colors.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:
Love theses socks. It's hard to find socks which won't get pulled down by athletic shoes. These stay put.

Comfy, great quality
Size: 6-10, Color: White
I’ve had these for quite a while now. They are holding up very well as i wear them a lot for work (coaching). They are very cushiony and most importantly, they do not slip!
I would compare these to Bombas but at a significantly better price point.

My favorite socks now!
Size: Medium, Color: Deep Sea/Breaker Blue/Electro Pink
I love socks! And these are quickly becoming my favorites! They do not slide down into your shoe no matter if you are working out or just wearing them for normal everyday use. The price is a little higher than I would normally pay for 3 pair of socks, but after wearing these for a few weeks, I think the quality and comfortability of these socks is well worth the money.
