The Bookstore and Mad Holidays. New Year Chronicles of a (Not Quite) Tired Bookseller

Once, Petra Hartlib unexpectedly opened a bookstore in Vienna. And now, 15 years have passed, the store is thriving, but its owners can only dream of peace. On the eve of the New Year holidays, there is no shortage of... visitors, mountains of books are piling up everywhere, the sellers are running around, and yet they still need to find that special cookbook for Frau L., pick gifts for the fifteen great-grandchildren of Frau F., decorate the Christmas tree, and not forget their own birthday.

The second book about the Viennese bookstore that plunges into the pre-holiday hustle in anticipation of Christmas. The everyday and festive life of the owner, along with a few recipes to create the atmosphere of a Viennese Christmas.
