What's more, her best friend Gerti is in love with a Jewish  boy, her brother writes books that have been blacklisted and her own  aunt may denounce her to the authorities at any moment, as Germany  teeters on the edge of the abyss. Written after she had fled the Nazi  regime, Irmgard Keun's masterly novel captures the feverish hysteria and  horror of the era with devastating perceptiveness and humour.
