Summary:
"For more than 25 years, Alfred Kerr wrote chattering letters from Berlin to distant Königsberg (today Kaliningrad / Russia) for the Sunday edition of the »Königsberger Allgemeine Zeitung«: He describes the beginning and final atmosphere in the First World War, the change from the imperial capital of the imperial era through the revolution to the capital of the Republic: Berlin becomes Berlin. These texts were lost for decades. Kerr, the star critic, who fled into exile in February 1933, was not forgotten after his death in 1948, but his fame only survived as a theater critic. In 1997, when the "Berliner Briefe", weekly reports for the Breslauer Zeitung, were rediscovered, Kerr's son Michael spoke of a "resurrection" of his father. The find of the letters in Breslau finally led to the find of the reports to Königsberg about the years in the empire, which are published here for the first time." --publisher's website.
