Anna Funder’s Samuel Johnson Prize-winning Stasiland is an Australian classic, the definitive account of tyranny and resistance in the former East Germany.

In 1989, the Berlin Wall fell; shortly afterwards the two Germanies reunited and East Germany ceased to exist.

Anna Funder’s best-selling Stasiland brings us extraordinary tales of real lives in the former East Germany. She meets Miriam, who tried to escape to West Berlin as a 16-year-old; hears the heartbreaking story of Frau Paul, who was separated from her young baby by the Berlin Wall; and gets drunk with the legendary ‘Mik Jegger’ of the East, once declared by the authorities - to his face - ‘no longer to exist’. And she meets the Stasi men themselves, still proud of their surveillance methods. Funder’s powerful account of that brutal world has become a contemporary classic.

"Funder is a superb interviewer...she truly excels in the rendering of her sessions with former Stasi employees." (Sunday Times)

The history is powerful and painful, and brilliantly told, but the actor reading it seems completely disconnected to both the brutal facts of the story and the simple, serious voice which the prose - as I imagine it on the page - conveys. She seems to think it’s a comedy. Exceptionally irritating to listen to.

Excellent book, poor choice of reader.

really good and interesting book about life in the GDR. Mostly good narration (the only annoyance was the pronunciation of Uwe). Would definitely recommend

Really interesting and fantastic perspectives

Anna Funder has deliberately not set out to provide a 'history' of the DDR, but has instead presented a series of vignettes which cast light on various aspects of the regime and, in particular, the activities of its secret police and their effects on the citizens. Through her interviews Funder provides us with a vivid picture of how it felt to live in the DDR and experience the day to day reality of the SED's twisted and Kafka-esque ideas and policies.

For such a well-written and thoughtful book, it is a pity that Audible have selected such an inept reader. The shockingly poor pronunciation of German names and places is very distracting and the childlike gruff voice which she gives to her male speakers is laughable.

A fascinating and very human look at the DDR

Mundane men in mundane offices destroy lives on an industrial scale. Very affecting and very well read.
