Schöne Bescherung - Kaminers Weihnachten

When Germans want something exotic and out of the ordinary, they travel to distant lands. But all they would need to do is look over the fence or turn the corner - and they would find the most incredible things. Liquid gold, strange dances, even a coronation - all right there in Germany. It is remarkable what a secret world comes to light when you approach Germans with the patient affection and curious goodwill that Wladimir Kaminer brings to the task. And because he also has a sharp sense of humour, he finds as much to laugh at as to marvel at. His stories about the hidden life of Germans reveal sides of the country and its people that most would never have suspected.
