Christiane Wünsche, the acclaimed German author known for her bestselling novels "We'll Meet at Home" and "But Daughters Are Forever," is set to release her latest family drama, "Sisters in Another Life," on February 28. The e-book version is already available since early February.
The novel, which promises to be an entertaining, empathetic, and authentic exploration of family and friendships, is set to take readers on a journey through 50 years of German history, from the RAF to punk and the eco-scene.
