The Berlin Assignment by Adrian de Hoog
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 2.7 MB
Overview: The Berlin Assignment is set in Berlin in the period 1992-93, shortly after the opening of the Wall brought arresting economic, social and physical changes to the city. It’s a story of discovery, romance and intrigue.
Anthony Hanbury, in the middle of a Canadian Foreign Service career characterised by mixed successes, is assigned as consul to Berlin. Having lived in Berlin in the sixties as a student, he asks for this assignment twenty-five years later because he wishes to renew contact, both with a city going massive renewal and people he once knew.
Hanbury’s career has been random, a drifting around the world from one place to the next. He now wants more permanence in life, an anchorage, and hopes to discover that in Berlin. Can relationships he had there in his youth be levered into his middle age? Just as Berlin, with the Wall down, has embarked on a new beginning, Hanbury arrives looking for a new start. The people he is planning to look up are a former lover, Sabine (now married to Werner Schwartz, a history professor), her father, Albert Müller and an East Berlin political activist, Günther Rauch, whom he met twice in the sixties when he used to cross the border.
