The author of Dying in Berlin returns to Berlin after an absence of 10 years. His view encounters the reality of a country (the former German Democratic Republic) that now only exists in the memories of those who knew it. Roads that no longer exist, bars and places that are no longer or are something else. The euphoria of the most innocent contrasts with the generalized frustration of those who are facing growing difficulties in order to barely maintain the standard of living achieved after decades of hard work. However, Berlin continues to be a vital city as well as an explosive mosaic of nationalities and cultures. In the opinion of the author, the tolerance that makes that diversity possible depends upon creativity, vigor and the personality of the Germany of the future.
