HE'S BACK AND HE'S FUHRIOUS!
"Satire at its best." --Newsweek
"Thrillingly transgressive." --The Guardian
A NEW YORK TIMES SUMMER READING PICK
In this record-breaking bestseller, Timur Vermes imagines what would happen if Adolf Hilter reawakened in present-day Germany: YouTube stardom.
Adolf Hitler wakes up on a patch of open ground, alive and well. It's the summer of 2011 and things have changed--no Eva Braun, no Nazi party, no war. Hitler barely recognizes his beloved Fatherland, filled with immigrants and run by a woman.
People certainly recognize him--as a flawless impersonator who refuses to break character. The unthinkable happens, and the ranting Hitler goes viral, becomes a YouTube star, gets his own TV show, and people begin to listen. But the Fuhrer has another program with even greater ambition in mind--to set the country he finds in shambles back to rights.
With daring humor, Look Who's Back is a perceptive study of the cult of personality and of how individuals rise to fame and power in spite of what they preach.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: fine. Later printing. Fine,fresh copy in equally fine dust jacket. Hardcover. 313 pp. Fourth printing. Translated from the German. It's Summer, 2011 Berlin. Adolph Hitler wakes up in a vacant lot, alive and well. But the world as he once knew it has changed---no Eva Braun, no Nazi Party, no war and his beloved Fatherland is now filled with immigrants and run by a woman. People certainly recognize him but think he is a brilliant impersonator who refuses to break character. Then, in the new age of media, the ranting Hitler takes off, goes viral, becomes a You Tube star and gets his own TV show. "Look Who's back" is a black and brilliant comedy satire of modern media-bloated society. It was the basis for the 2015 movie by director David Wnendt and featured unscripted vignettes by Oliver Masucci as Hitler. The film was in the running for the German submission in the Best Foreign Film category for the Academy Awards but, due to the sensitive nature of its subject was not selected. Artikel-Nr. E35558
