>Prior to the Nazi take-over, two popular genres were the Heimat-Roman, or regional novel, and Schollen-Roman, or novel of the soil, which was also known as Blut-und-Boden.This literature was vastly increased, the term being contracted into a slogan "Blu-Bo", and developed a mysticism of unity. It also combined war literature with the figure of the soldier-peasant, uncontaminated by the city. These books were generally set in the nominal past, but their invocation of the passing of the seasons often gave them an air of timelessness. "Blood and soil" novels and theater celebrated the farmer's life and human fertility, often mystically linking them.
Any recs from this genre?

I read this in one book about the nazis I have here. I always wondered how those books were.
From the little I could have the will to search, they seen to be that cheap literature that people sometimes consume. Stuff full of cliche and so on.
