AN UNNAMED MAN arrives in Berlin as a visiting professor and finds a city fused with troubled Western history and
cultural fracture lines. He moves along its streets and pavements, through its department stores, museums and restaurants. He befriends Faqrul, an enigmatic exiled poet, and Birgit, a woman with whom he shares the vagaries of attraction. He tries to understand his white-haired cleaner. Berlin is a riddle - he becomes lost not only in the city but in its legacy.
As his tenure passes, the narrator's growing absorption in his surroundings is accompanied by a loosening of his grasp on memory... and yet the less certain he is of his place in the world, the more he knows his way.
