Post-war Germany, Berlin. The city's first months after its defeat in World War II. A life of poverty in a ruined city. Germans are overcome by a complex array of emotions: national humiliation, shame and remorse for the crimes they committed, fear of punishment, a nightmarish sense of being the object of universal hatred... And at the same time, love for their lost country, this "sick heart of Europe."

Fallada's hero is not personally guilty of war crimes, but feels guilty for the weakness and lack of willpower of the entire nation. Listening to the Nuremberg Tribunal reports on Nazi atrocities, he shudders to admit that he didn't know all this, but deep down, he understands that even if he had known, he would have done nothing to prevent it.

"Nightmare in Berlin" is a bitter and honest eyewitness account of the most shameful and tragic chapters in the history of the German people.
