Description
This book brings together episodes. Some date from the time before the fall of the Wall, when life in East and West was characterized by different rules, but pervaded by similar longings. Others were written after reunification, in a Germany that is still striving for fair unity today. The stories are not just snapshots of one man, but also reflections of a country in transition. They tell of adaptation and resistance, of humor as an art of survival and of the tolerance that can hold not only a marriage but also a country together.
