Description
Heath Winslow is a cynical, self-deprecating freelance journalist seeking to inform and influence his readers about the political, social, and economic shifts sweeping Europe in the late 1980s. At the same time, he faces personal challenges as people in his life seek to influence his work. The adventure culminates in the fall of the Berlin Wall and far-reaching changes impacting the continent-and the world.
Bruce Zielsdorf wrote Munich Spring: A Cold War Adventure in Bavaria as a fictional exploration of events and perspectives he witnessed and experienced while living and working in Germany at the moment political regimes there crumbled. Munich Spring is a novel, but it shares the very real impact of politics, religion, science, and technology through the eyes of everyday people caught up in the moment and not sure where these transformations might take them.
Advance Praise
"From Mr. Peanutbutter:
5.0 out of 5 stars - Historical fiction at its finest
(Reviewed in the United States on Nov. 1, 2020)
I picked up Mr. Zielsdorf’s second novel after throughly enjoying his debut Green Card Soldier. It follows the adventures of journalist Heath Winslow during the upheaval in Germany in the late 80s before the fall of the Berlin Wall. Without knowledge of history we are doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past. Anyone younger who isn’t aware of the political shift from authoritarian USSR to the current social democratic state of Germany should read this book. For anyone older like myself it’s a great reminder, put in a very entertaining package. It’s a quick a fun read but also educational. Highly recommend!"
