I suggest we create chapter threads or some other threads that people can post in right now. Are there author interviews on YouTube? Are there any reviews of the book available that can be posted?

Hello sillyme!

I'm glad you will be joining the discussion.

Here is an interesting interview with Gunter Grass. Over the next few days I will be adding more information about Gunter Grass and "The Tin Drum". This information should wet our appetites for the discussion. It's always nice to know a bit about the author before reading the book.

Hi there!

I am new to this...but I would like to be part of the chat/discussion! Just buying the book right now. I understand the discussion is in September or October? Is that correct? :roll:

I apologize for being so ignorant about this. :roll:
