Who wants to read about bad things? There was a little bit of it, but I didn't think too much about it.\nIn my post-war memoirs, I talk about my experiences during this time and the events that happened at that time. This continued into the years of the economic miracle.\nIn the Heimatgefühle aus Neu-Tempelhof, I describe the world I lived in, including a bit of the city's history, and I haven't quite finished yet. Neu-Tempelhof is interesting for two reasons. It is historically significant and it is an example of urban development.\nThe 60s were a time of young love, fun trips, and cool cars. People socialized with friends and co-workers. There is also contemporary history. In the 70s, they say goodbye to grandma and look to the West, with lots of free time for fun.\nIn the stories from Kurfürstendamm, I describe my experiences on this street. It is also a journey through time, from the ruins of the memorial church to the boulevard in its festive splendor. Bill Haley's rock and roll, the Beatles' \"Let It Be,\" and the Let's Twist Again song are some examples. The song by Hildegard Knef is unforgettable.\nMy student Christmas stories are at the end. There are some interesting things in there, but I don't want to spoil the surprise.\nI have illustrated the stories, using my own photos, photos I found online, and photos from books. I thought to myself, \"This will show that the stories are true.\"\nThe illustrated stories from West Berlin are followed in a second volume by stories from West Germany, where I still spend the second half of my life.\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783819265617\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn the Shadow of the Wall, in the Light of the West\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783819265617","offer_id":54873594069317,"sku":"9783819265617","price":18.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/14360904-16d4-4aba-8863-d42985a8bcc7.jpg?v=1781931349","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/memories-of-west-berlin-and-west-germany-von-hans-j-rokohl","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
