My Century (German: Mein Jahrhundert, 1999) is a novel written by German author Günter Grass. Having published many significant novels in the postwar period, he was awarded the 1999 Nobel Prize in Literature. Each chapter in My Century is only a few pages long. Each focuses on a single year from 1900 to 1999. The story of each year is told differently, expressed by changes in time, place, narrator and literary style. Source: Wikipedia (en)
