The book, which Harry Strawson in The Times Literary Supplement called “a book to take out walking – just as a guidebook should be”, is now available in paperback, which authors Paul Sullivan and Marcel Krueger will celebrate with a small event at one of Berlin’s best English-language bookshops, the wonderful Curious Fox on Lausitzer Platz. There will be refreshments available and Marcel will chat with writer, translator and Berliner books editor Alex Wells about their favourite Berlin books and aspects of the inspiration the German capital keeps offering to writers to this day.
