Fausts Metropolis by Alexandra Richie

Fausts Metropolis by Alexandra Richie

Beautifully conceived and marvellously researched. I havent read a better book on Berlin. Gordon A. Craig

‘Thoroughgoing and engrossingModern Berlin was the hub of commerce, centre stage for politics, mecca for high culture, and a haven for extravagance and eccentricity. Alexandra Richie controls all this material superbly.’ Peter Gay

‘A wide-ranging book, full of fascinating detail, and compellingly written.’ Robert Conquest

‘A unique combination of an analysis of Berlin with a study of the entire history of Germany and of Germany’s problems of national and linguistic self-definition.’ Harold James

Alexandra Richie wrote this book while a Fellow of Wolfson College, Oxford. She has lived and worked in both East and West Berlin and in the unified capital, and wrote her Oxford doctorate on the history of the city. Her family has been linked to Berlin since the fourteenth century. She is currently researching and writing on German-Russian history. This is her first book.
