About this listen

Berlin, 1938: Der Kaufmann Otto Silbermann findet sich nach den Novemberpogromen und seiner Flucht aus Berlin als rastloser Reisender in den Zügen der Deutschen Reichsbahn wieder. Verwandte und Freunde sind verhaftet oder verschwunden. Was ihm noch bleibt, ist eine Aktentasche voller Geld.

In den Waggons, auf Bahnsteigen und in Bahnhofsrestaurants, auf seinen Fahrten quer durchs Land trifft er auf andere Reisende, Flüchtlinge und Nazis, auf gute wie schlechte Menschen. Noch nie hat man mit so unmittelbarer Wucht nachempfinden können, wie lebensverändernd die Novemberpogrome für jeden einzelnen Menschen in Deutschland waren.

As important and welcome it is to publish literature from this era, as a novel this is not particularly successful. Soon it gets predictable and samey. I have read much more compelling accounts of the times. Well read.

Not as gripping as expected
