Berlin! Berlin!

Autor Kurt Tucholsky
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 mai 2013
A representative selection from the man with the acid pen and the perfect pitch for hypocrisy, who was as much the voice of 1920s Berlin as Georg Grosz was its face. Kurt Tucholsky was a brilliant reporter, satirist, poet, lyricist, and storyteller of the Weimar Republic, a pacifist and a democrat; a fighter, lady's man, theater lover, political animal, and also an early warner against the Nazis. They hated and loathed Tucholsky, and drove him out of his country. The famed journalist became an outcast, an enemy of the state. His books were burned and banned in 1933, he died alone in Sweden. But he is not forgotten.With this extraordinary and also funny book, Tuchols­ky's work about his hometown Berlin is published for the first time in the United States.

Notă biografică

Kurt Tucholsky was a was a brilliant satirist, poet, storyteller, lyricist, pacifist, and Democrat; a fighter, lady's man, one of the most famous journalists in Weimar Germany, and an early warner against the Nazis. Erich Kaestner called him a "small, fat Berliner," who "wanted to stop a catastrophe with his typewriter". When Tucholsky began to write, he had five voices-in the end, he had none. His books were burned and banned by the Nazis, who drove him out of his country. But he is not forgotten.

Recenzii

"Kurt Tucholsky was one of the most brilliant German Jewish writers and satirists of his time. He had to leave his beloved Berlin because of his biting, yet witty stories against militarism and Nazi Fascism. Today's Berliners adore him as one of the greatest sons of this city. The world has yet to discover his genius."-Peter Schneider, author of The Wall Jumper and Eduard's Homecoming"A representative selection from the man with the acid pen and the perfect pitch for hypocrisy, who was as much the voice of 1920s Berlin as Georg Grosz was its face."-Peter Wortsman, Author of A Modern Way to Die and Ghost Dance in Berlin"Kurt Tucholsky was one of the most brilliant writers of republican Germany...More than any other person, he foresaw what was coming....What his readers had enjoyed as the capricious fantasies of a clever satirist has now been enacted in bitter reality, even to a satirical forecast of his own mode of death."-From the New York Times' 1936 Obituary
