Episode Description

The 1920s were the peak decade in Alfred Döblin’s life and career. Between 1919 (the end of the First World War) and 1929 (the publication of Berlin Alexanderplatz) he was triply engaged: as a writer; an activist; and a family man. We discuss living conditions in Berlin; the political ferment; troubles with censors; and family life. The Reading comes from a 1930 radio broadcast in which Döblin speaks frankly of his creativity and his deep affection for Berlin.
