sareidle 's review for:
informative
tense
slow-paced
I enjoyed Mohr's voice and writing style - it was informative but irreverent which suited the subject matter. The stories of East German punks came to life and the photos added context and character. My only critique is the pacing of the book - it spent a lot of time on the events of 1983-84 and a bit on the mid- to late-80s but breezed through 1989. The book felt like it was building up to the fall of the Berlin Wall, but skipped over the action, instead telling the story of a band who played in West Berlin on November 9th and noticed their East Berlin friends joining the crowd.
Graphic: Police brutality, Stalking
Moderate: Cursing, Physical abuse
Minor: Animal death
