D 2: Object/ coursebook and botany book

Before I left Germany I sold or gave away almost everything I owned. I didn't want to always have my old life around me. I wanted to be open to new experience and impressions. But I kept just two books, coursebook no.17 from 1969, 'Woman and Society', and my botany book from school, a wooden footstool and my cat.
