The Sound Behind The Wall: An East German Underground Story

The Sound behind the Wall is a GREAT read. Fun, meaningful. Offers an inside view of the underground music scene and of life during the later stages of the Berlin Wall, through the eyes of a promising young musician. Reininghaus brings to life the feelings and hopes of young people living on their own in the big city. Concerts, romances, road trips. He captures a slice of life of the rock music milieu, while at the same time documenting experiences of people behind the Wall during the declining years of the East German Communist dictatorship. Particularly moving are the sections describing the narrator's mandatory service in the East German Army (the NVA) and the role that music and his friends play in helping him survive the emotional turmoil imposed by the secret police (the Stasi).Totally recommend the book!
