Zustand: very good, very good. First Edition. Second Printing. 212, front DJ flap price clipped, DJ slightly worn and sticker residue. This 1991 book of essays explores the situation in Germany after the wall came down as well as other subjects, such as Asians in Berlin and German attitudes toward dogs. A year after reunification, one of Germany's sharpest writers takes a penetrating look at the minor disruptions and dramas caused by the fall of the wall. A delight to read, but also has a message about Germany's future and insular views. The author argues that the real fear about the new Germany is not the rise of neo-Nazism, but of a cult of righteousness, with its concomitant mistrust of foreigners and especially the threat of the creation of a moral vacuum for a nation so intent on forgetting the ghosts that haunt its past.
