New Books in German New Books in German is a biannual journal aimed at everyone interested in books in German and at British and American editors who would like to publish more translations and appreciate independent help in finding the right titles. From Academy Award nominated filmmaker Bruce Beresford comes Bride of the Wind , the story of Alma Mahler-Werfel, a remarkable woman whose complex life crossed a rich artistic era and two world wars. She was swept up in passionate affairs with some of the most talented artists of her time, including composer Gustav Mahler and painter Oskar Kokoschka. These men threatened to overwhelm her own sense of self and artistic drive. Bride of the Wind opens nationwide in June.
