Berlin - Psychogramme of a City

Összefoglaló

»Berlin«, writes Karl Scheffler at the end of his classic 1910 portrait of the city, is »damned forever to become and never to be«. Scheffler could not have anticipated that his dictum would prove prophetic. From the golden twenties to the anarchic nineties and its status of world capital of hipsterdom at the beginning of the new millennium - hardly has another author captured the fascinating and unique character of the city as perfectly. The formerly divided city has become the symbol of a new urbanity, blessed with the privilege of never having to be, but forever to become.
