About People

... that Der Spiegel described Juli Zeh's novel About People as a modern Heimatroman due to its portrayal of city and country life?

Source: "Auch »Über Menschen« ist ein moderner Heimatroman. Das Genre lebt vom Prinzip der Unausweichlichkeit: Stadtluft macht frei, aber nervös; Landluft ist gesund, aber man muss sie mit immer denselben Leuten atmen." https://www.spiegel.de/kultur/literatur/juli-zeh-und-ihr-roman-ueber-menschen-nachbar-nazi-a-1ace1f15-b2f3-4454-8efd-2f5f5937a03a

ALT1: ... that a scholar argued that the 2021 German novel About People, which is about the COVID-19 pandemic, encourages "sympathy with rightwing extremists"? Source: "Also in the context of the pandemic, Zeh has authored two novels that encourage sympathy with rightwing extremists, Über Menschen (2021) and Zwischen Welten (2023, with Simon Urban)." https://doi.org/10.1111%2Fgequ.12404

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall:

Sourcing looks good to me, but marking as AGF just because Google Translate is never perfect. Proposing ALT1b above, which has the linked "COVID-19 pandemic in Germany" instead of just "COVID-19 pandemic". Approving ALT0 and ALT1b—I prefer ALT1b. Good work!
