My Dear Ada

The novels of the famous actor and screenwriter Christian Berkel "My Dear Ada" and "The Apple Tree" have become bestsellers. The novel "The Apple Tree" remained in the list of the best books of the German edition of Spiegel for over 25 weeks, which is a real achievement. The books are united by a common plot, but each is a standalone work. In the novel "My Dear Ada," Christian Berkel describes the fictional fate of his sister. It is a story about a girl, and then a woman, who witnesses the construction and destruction of the Berlin Wall, the economic miracle of West Germany, and the student protests of the 1960s. This is a period of change, the coexistence of traditional values and new sexuality. The problems of generations, alienation from family, the desire to be loved and to understand oneself - all this is in the author's new novel. *** "This is not a biography, but a mosaic of an amazing life, the gaps in which the author delicately fills with his own imagination." - Munchner Merkur *** The novels of Christian Berkel have been translated into 9 foreign languages and have been repeatedly noted in the media.
