German 4 Honors Summer Reading
 
Guten Tag!  Wir lesen gern im Sommer!  You will be reading the last short story in the book Five Great German Short Stories.  It's entitled Das Urteil, or The Judgment, by Franz Kafka.  You will find an English and a German version of the story.  Be sure to read both!  You may want to read the German first, and then check your understanding with the English translation.  As there will be an assessment the first week of class, taking notes is recommended.  Pay particular attention to the relationship between the main character and his father.  Viel Glueck und Spass!
