Uwe Timm has heard claims that currywurst first appeared in Berlin in the 1950s, but he seems to recall having eaten it much earlier, as a boy in his native Hamburg, at a stand owned and operated by Lena Brücker. He decides to check it out. Although the discovery of curried sausage is eventually explained, it is its prehistory - about how Lena Brücker met, seduced and held captive a German deserter in Hamburg, in April, 1945, just before the war's end-that is the tastiest part. Timm draws gorgeous details from Lena's fine-grained recollections, and the pleasure these provide her and the reader supply the tale's real charm.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 173mmItem Length: 122mmItem Width: 18mmItem Weight: 186gAuthor: Uwe TimmTranslator: Leila VennewitzContributor: Leila Vennewitz (Translated by)Genre: FictionRelease Year: 1998 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
