Summary
"Crowded within the insular world of 1988 East Berlin, their lives conducted amid the cracks in the German Democratic Republic's approved social vision, the nine people interviewed in this book formed a loose social network. Ten years later and in a different German state, the stories they tell restore subjective experience to our historical grasp of communism and its collapse."--Jacket.
