The "Berne" category of books is likely a reference to the Swiss city of Bern, which could imply a focus on literature either originating from or set within this picturesque capital, known for its rich history and cultural heritage. Books within the "Berne" genre may encompass a range of literary forms, including historical fiction that delves into the city's past, travelogues capturing the charm of its medieval streets, or perhaps even political thrillers that play out against the backdrop of its status as the de facto capital of Switzerland. Additionally, this category could include works by Swiss authors or literature that explores Swiss identity, society, and the interplay between the country's diverse languages and cultures, all through the lens of Bern's unique perspective.
