I thought this book was extremely interesting though a little bit hard to follow at times. My rating may also be biased by my genuine interest in Berlin politics and history, and the fact that I was there 3 months ago...

i really liked bits of it but I found some bits a bit boring, all and all I would recommend this book if you have an interest and some knowledge about the Berlin Wall.
