Waterstones - Banbury

We reported the launch of 'The Fifty-Fifty Feeling' in the summer of 2006, when the author of the original German book, Karin Konig, came from Hamburg to London to meet the three former Tudor Hall girls, Kitty Geddes, Louisa Barnett and Lizzie Scott, who had translated the book into English during their final year at school in 2004.

The book, which depicts life in the divided Germany before and just after the fall of the Berlin Wall was published and the launch was held at the Oxford Street branch of Waterstones. There is now a second edition, with a foreward by the author, and it can be obtained at the Banbury branch of Waterstones.

Tilly Seccombe and Cece Henson, who were in the IVs when 'Fifty-Fifty' was translated, and are now using the book to help them with their A2 German studies, went to Banbury to see it on sale in Waterstones.
