About this ebook
BERLIN--East and West, day and night--in the 1980s before the Wall fell. Through the eyes of a U.S. philosophy student. And Jewish, which makes for moments awkward, poignant, crass, funny, and always lurking. A city was divided, America the occupier, and the cigarettes not named Salem because it sounds too Jewish. The debut memoir from the author of Moral Clarity, a N.Y. Times "2008 Notable Book."
