Set on a single day in 1927, My Red Heaven imagines a host of
characters-some historic, some invented-crossing paths on the
streets of Berlin. The subjects include Robert Musil, Otto Dix,
Werner Heisenberg, Anita Berber, Vladimir Nabokov, Kathe Kollwitz,
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and Rosa Luxemburg-as well as others
history has forgotten: a sommelier, a murderer, a prostitute, a
pickpocket, and several ghosts. Drawing inspiration from Otto
Freundlich's painting by the same name, My Red Heaven explores a
complex moment in history: the rise of deadly populism at a time
when everything seemed possible and the future unimaginable. A
terrific read for fans of Richard Powers' The Overstory and Colum
McCann's Let the Great World Spin.
