Industry Reviews
"...Mr. Schneider gets the mix of comedy and melancholy just right....This nostalgic look at love in divided Berlin is a sly political parable. It celebrates the roles of chance....The book's very title hints at the mixed blessings of German reunification."
New York Times Book Review - Suzanne Ruta (10/22/1996)
"[A] polished, sardonic view of life and love in Berlin shortly before unification, as a biologist and his artistic friends probe the boundaries between commitment and liberation....Much more than a witty chronicle of the ins and outs of romance in Berlin, Schneider's debut conveys, from a distinctly male perspective, a feeling for the complex ambience of the once divided city, where pride and guilt mingle to curious effect..."
