Ever hear of a log-sawing ritual at a wedding ceremony? Or renting
an apartment with kitchen space, but no kitchen? How about having
to bring birthday cake to work on your own birthday? In The
Frankfurt Files: Tales of an American in Germany, David Conte moves
overseas to Frankfurt, Germany, so he can save his relationship
with his German girlfriend (now-wife). But when he finds himself
having to relearn life in a very different way, his storybook
romance becomes one big lesson in surviving culture shock: hauling
a couch up a flight of stairs alone after being abandoned by
furniture movers; participating in civilized nudity at a wellness
center; addressing the all-important issue of cream cheese abuse in
German sandwiches. As a discerning idealist turned idiot among
foreigners, he relates the good, the bad, and the in-between of his
offbeat encounters as an expatriate.
