Zusammenfassung:A complete satirical selection from the "man with the acid pen and the perfect pitch for hypocrisy," as Tucholsky-expert Peter Wortsman writes, this book contains Tucholsky's news stories, features, satirical pieces, and poems about his hometown Berlin. It depicts Weimar Berlin, its cabarets, its policies, its follies, its ticks, and its celebrities, such as Pola Negri, Gussy Holl, Bert Brecht, Max Reinhardt, and Heinrich Zille.
