Great Read

Great read from an author who has worked in the film industry for decades. I met his granddaughter who told me, unfortunately, this is his only published work. Several film companies are looking at it to make it a movie. It is another fascinating insight into the way it was for civilians in World War 2 Germany. A touch of "Caberet", a touch of "Diary of Anne Frank", and equal to both. I couldn't wait to turn the next page on this exciting and haunting book. I wish the author would write another.

fast spaced, unputdownable

This is one of the best books I ever read. Historically authentic, thrilling, decadent, sublime prose with an ingenious plot.

One of the Best books I've ever read...

I found a flimsy proof version of this book at a garage sale circa 1998 and it has since been read by almost every member of my family and crossed the country two times.If you like the idea of pre war Berlin cabarets and espionage, then I promise you you will more than like this book.

Just Beautiful

This book was absolutely thrilling, heartbreaking and enlightening. I actually read it with a pencil to underline passages, foreign expressions and historical references to conduct further research---and I've never before done that. Although fiction, this book entices the reader to learn more about the era in which it took place. As a student of German, French, and Arabic, I was especially appreciative of the way Mr. Nebenzal included the spice of foreign words and references. (Showing respect for the intelligence of his readers.) This is rarely seen in books today. As for the story itself, the characters are rich and moving---the descriptions are vivid. The story is mesmerizing. This is a must read---But make sure you're not busy--you won't be able to put this book down!

Impossible to put down!

I read this book in a matter of days because I just could not put it down. I recommended it to a friend who said that he was reading it on an airplane that slid off the runway and he didn't even notice! (True story)
