Description
Frances Faviell's memoir of post-war Berlin is a powerful and poignant portrait of a city in turmoil. Against the backdrop of economic hardship, social upheaval, and moral compromise, she recounts her own experiences with candour and insight.
The Dancing Bear offers a searingly honest account of life in occupied Germany, from the black market to the nightclubs, and the people who inhabited this strange and troubled world. With its unflinching gaze and sharp, limpid prose, this book is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
This new edition includes an afterword by Frances Faviell's son, John Parker, and additional supplementary material, providing a deeper understanding of this remarkable memoir.
