Look Who's Back
A German Literature, Humor, Fiction book. One must undertake everything with utter, fanatical determination. Or one will get nowhere. Timur Vermes, Er ist...
Berlin, Summer 2011. Adolf Hitler wakes up on a patch of open ground, alive and well. Things have changed – no Eva Braun, no Nazi party, no war. Hitler barely recognises his beloved Fatherland, filled with immigrants and run by a woman.People certainly recognise him, albeit as a flawless impersonator who refuses to break character. The unthinkable, the inevitable happens, and the ranting Hitler goes viral, becomes a YouTube star, gets his own T.V. show, and people begin to listen. But the Führer has another programme with even greater ambition – to set the country he finds a shambles back to rights.LOOK WHO’S BACK stunned and then thrilled 1.5 million German readers with its fearless approach to the most taboo of subjects. Naive yet insightful, repellent yet strangely sympathetic, the revived Hitler unquestionably has a spring in his step.

What to say about this? What did I think? I wasn't sure.... With all the fuss about this book, I felt I had to read it in order to form my own opinion. Its very much what Id call a marmite book some will love it and some will hate it. Those that will hate it will in the main be those that have either studied the 3rd Reich in detail or have been personally affected it.I must admit I did feel... Schwarz, schwrzer, am schwrzesten.
