This is the perfect book for paranoid times, "I" introduces us to
W, a mere hangeron in East Berlin's postmodern underground literary
scene. All is not as it appears, though, as W is actually a Stasi
informant who reports to the mercurial David Bowie look-alike Major
Feuerbach. But are political secrets all that W is seeking in the
underground labyrinth of Berlin? In fact, what W really desires are
his own lost memories, the self undone by surveillance: his "I."
First published in Germany in 1993 and hailed as an instant
classic, "I" is a black comedy about state power and the seductions
of surveillance. Its penetrating vision seems especially relevant
today in our world of cameras on every train, bus, and corner. This
is an engrossing read, available now for the first time in English.
