I do like the way in which he tackles guilt, remorse, and Vergangenheitsbewaltigung.Throughout most of the past millennium war has been largely a civilized affair fought by professional armies operating under established rules.

The "Good German" syndrome People still blame the Germans for allowing Hitler to do the evil that he did, and in particular for pretending not to see the Holocaust as it occurred around them. This was definitely the best Kanon book I’ve read so far.
It’s very plot-heavy, and I’m a character-development lover. But the movie (like most movies based on a book) is HORRIBLE. Blah. They showed us the city including a massive war memorial to the Russian soldier (in the Russian sector of course), the Brandenburg gate and Checkpoint Charlie, a refugee camp, the Voice of America studio, the Free University, etc. What an intense book. So many that I wish I had taken notes at the beginning of the book. The acting is good and it's filmed in artistic …



9. While exciting, I wasn’t a nervous wreck, like in so many thrillers (which makes reading not so enjoyable). Directed by Steven Soderbergh. Kanon presents the struggle for German rocket scientists, Americans versus Russians, with both sides desperate to enhance their own post-war technology and neither concerned about the Nazi past and practices of the men they are seeking. The first is that there's way too much dialogue. Ingrid Bergman, however, was Swedish.

A murder takes place within the first chapter but I really could nI have to admit, I did not finish this book which is unusual for me. The Good German (2006) Trivia. While there, a murder is committed, and Jake gets involved.
And then Kanon thinks he's being edgy by writing in a bunch of short sentence fragments. I kept reading for so long wanting to like this book. Geismer becomes entwined in both the mystery of his murdered driver and the clandestine search by both Geismer, in his attempts to get his former lover, Lena, out of Berlin, gets more and more involved in the search for Emil Brandt. The first is that there's way too much dialogue. The descriptions of Berlin in the summer of 1945 are so atmospheric it's like being there. The Good German is a story of espionage, love, and murder, an extraordinary re-creation of a city devastated by war, and a thriller that asks the most profound ethical questions in its exploration of the nature of justice and what we mean by good and evil in times of peace and of war. They made me nostalgic: I was there in the summer of 1958 when there was still a lot of war damage.

Early Russian occupation has been harsh; the black market flourishes; rapes are common; a cigarette is the price for sex.Post WWII, Potsdam Conference, Berlin setting. Another There is the black market, finding Nazis, escaping from the Russian controlled area of Germany, discovering how far the "good" guys will go to get the scientific brain power of Nazi Germany. Kafka works during the day at an insurance company, where events lead him to discover a mysterious underground society with strange suppressive goals. He discovers that the driver he's assigned, a cheerful down-home sadist named Corporal Tully, is Lena's keeper.

Jake Geismar, an Americsn correspondent who spent time in the city before the war, has returned to write about the Allied triumph while persuing a more personal quest: his search for Lena, the married woman he left behind.

When Jake stumbles on a murder -- an American soldier was When Jake stumbles on a murder -- an American soldier washes up on the conference grounds -- he thinks he has found the key that will unlock his Berlin story. If it’s still relevant to you, there’s no serious profanity in the book. There was really nothing that kept me wanting to come back to see what was happening I think primarily because there was little character development so I couldn't identify or really like any of the characters. Hitler has been defeated and Berlin is divided into zones of occupation. I've liked all of his novels, but The Good German is really outstanding.

Involved and overlong mystery set in immediately post-war Berlin in 1945 has too many intricate subplots (and subsequent false-ending resolutions) to sustain edge-of-seat emotional levels all the way through, and the great emotional impact of the first few scenes setting up the philsophical discussion of the "good" German is dulled by too many repetitions.

He also wants to find out what happened to Lena’s husband, Emil, a scientist working wSet in Berlin at the time of the Potsdam Conference, just after the Allied victory in Europe, Jake Geismar, an American journalist, is searching for his German girlfriend, Lena, along with a story for his magazine.
