As books go I am looking forward to her descriptions of Berlin (a city I've never visited) and the contrast that might be divulged with Mexico (a country I've been and remember with nostalgia).
What I am curious about is the books ending--as antisemitism is on the rise, again, in Western Europe and in those few European newspapers I continue to read, a week doesn't go by when an assault isn't reported.
