In a narrative both comic and terrifying, movie and theatre people, Nazis and resistance fighters, historical figures and the author's inventions interact in a jigsaw puzzle of a plot centered on life in Berlin. We see the gay bars of the Weimar Republic; the burning of the Reichstag; Josef Goebbels seducing a starlet; the anti-Semitic Kristallnacht riots; the "hospitals" in which the ailing are put to death; the Allied bombings; life in the Fuehrer Bunker, in which everyone waits for Fearless Leader finally to kill himself so they can make a run for it; the arrival of the Russians in a city of bomb craters and contentless facades; and the death, at last, of the Jewcatcher himself: Hitler.
