Ghosts of Berlin by Rudolph Herzog
In Ghosts of Berlin, Rudolph Herzog's macabre and madcap vision of Berlin, bleeding walls are as terrifying as overpriced artisanal burgers. Set in hipster Kruezberg, chic airport lounges, and the former border between East and West Germany, the denizens of Herzog's Berlin are demon-conjuring tech bros, acid-tripping artists, and forsaken migrants, each encountering the ghosts of the city's complicated past. Herzog delivers a collection at once arresting and thought-provoking, and the book's true star, Berlin, is revealed as a modern metropolis with a past that won't stay quiet.
Rudolph Herzog is an award-winning writer and director. His BBC/ARD documentary on humor in Hitler's Third Reich became the basis of DEAD FUNNY named a book of the year by THE ATLANTIC. His second book, the critically acclaimed SHORT HISTORY OF NUCLEAR FOLLY was later made into a documentary that streamed on Netflix. He is the son of acclaimed filmmaker Werner Herzog. Emma Rault is a translator from the German. She lives in Los Angeles.
