Description

A love letter to the inhabitants of East Berlin's largest prefabricated housing estate, this memoir is a tender reflection on life's progression. Katja Oskamp recounts her journey from abandoning her writing career to retraining as a chiropodist, and the stories she gathers from her clients and co-workers.

From her intimate vantage point at the foot of the clinic chair, Oskamp observes the lives of those around her with empathy and curiosity. Part memoir, part collective history, this book offers a unique glimpse into the experiences of those living in Marzahn during a pivotal moment in German history.
