After the fall of the Wall, Berlin is full of disused spaces and abandoned buildings, just waiting to be filled with new life. It is unclear who owns any of this, which allows the techno scene to take over these new empty spaces in both halves of the city. Clubs, galleries, ateliers and studios spring up – only to disappear again a few weeks later. Soon Berlin has become the epicentre of a new culture, attracting enthusiastic followers from all over the world to clubs like the Tresor and the E-Werk. Wearing gasmasks and welding goggles they dance the night away to the jackhammer sound of previously obscure Detroit DJs. Among them are writers, artists, photographers, designers, DJs, club-owners, music producers, bouncers and scenesters, people from the centre of the movement and from its peripheries – in Der Klang der Familie they all get to have their say and paint a vibrant picture of a time when it felt like everything was possible.
He¿s German. She¿s Jewish, the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors no less. For all she knows, he could be the grandson of Nazis. Her mother, who boycotts all German products, certainly wouldn¿t approve. But after one beer with him in Tel Aviv, Nilly can¿t stop thinking about Sebastian, even though a relationship with this blonde, blue-eyed hunk would be impossible. He¿s in Israel on a musical peace mission; she was born in Ariel, an Israeli city in the West Bank, which he considers an "obstacle to peace."Nilly fights her attraction to this forbidden German, but the Dresden-native is just too nice¿and hot¿to resist. Apparently, she is too. A few dates at hot spots in Tel Aviv lead to a cross-cultural, steamy romance that eventually forces them both to break taboos, challenge prejudices, and uncover family secrets.Spanning the vibrant nightlife and cultural scenes of Berlin and Tel Aviv in the shadow of rising terror in Europe, Underskin is a rare breed of literary erotica exploring the intricacies of romantic relationships amidst religious, cultural, and political differences.
This suspenseful novel features the main character, Henni Octon, from the Stella Street books. It's a quirky detective story about righting the wrongs of the past and fighting injustice in the present; a touching story of friendship (across time, across cultures), football and the power of the Internet.
It's 1989. The Berlin Wall has fallen and the city's youth are tasting a new found freedom. Throughout Europe, electronic dance music is powering nightclubs and fueling day-long raves, which makes Berlin-a city hit by economic hardship and with acres of empty warehouses and factories-the perfect incubator for an underground music scene. This book brings that scene, which has continued for nearly three decades, to life. Taking its name from a strict ban on cameras in the city's nightclubs, this book documents Berlin's club culture.
National Jewish Book Award Winner The New York Times bestselling author of A Fierce Radiance and City of Light returns with a powerful and passionate novel—inspired by historical events—about two women, one European and one American, and the mysterious choral masterpiece by Johann Sebastian Bach that changes both their lives. In the ruins of Germany in 1945, at the end of World War II, American soldier Henry Sachs takes a souvenir, an old music manuscript, from a seemingly deserted mansion and mistakenly kills the girl who tries to stop him. In America in 2010, Henry’s niece, Susanna Kessler, struggles to rebuild her life after she experiences a devastating act of violence on the streets of New York City. When Henry dies soon after, she uncovers the long-hidden music manuscript. She becomes determined to discover what it is and to return it to its rightful owner, a journey that will challenge her preconceptions about herself and her family’s history—and also offer her an opportunity to finally make peace with the past. In Berlin, Germany, in 1783, amid the city’s glittering salons where aristocrats and commoners, Christians and Jews, mingle freely despite simmering anti-Semitism, Sara Itzig Levy, a renowned musician, conceals the manuscript of an anti-Jewish cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach, an unsettling gift to her from Bach’s son, her teacher. This work and its disturbing message will haunt Sara and her family for generations to come. Interweaving the stories of Susanna and Sara, and their families, And After the Fire traverses over two hundred years of history, from the eighteenth century through the Holocaust and into today, seamlessly melding past and present, real and imagined. Lauren Belfer’s deeply researched, evocative, and compelling narrative resonates with emotion and immediacy.
Not an autobiography in the customary sense, Benjamin's recollection of his childhood in an upper-middle-class Jewish home in Berlin's West End at the turn of the century is translated into English for the first time in book form.
How does an urban community come to terms with the loss of its future? The former socialist model city of Hoyerswerda is an extreme case of a declining postindustrial city. Built to serve the GDR coal industry, it lost over half its population to outmigration after German reunification and the coal industry crisis, leading to the large-scale deconstruction of its cityscape. This book tells the story of its inhabitants, now forced to reconsider their futures. Building on recent theoretical work, it advances a new anthropological approach to time, allowing us to investigate the postindustrial era and the futures it has supposedly lost.
