As an army medic stationed in Allied-occupied Germany, Reinhart is a young man of large bulk (two hundred pounds, plus)—good-hearted, intelligent, and something of a fool. He pursues with anxiety and bewilderment his custodial role over a shattered and noxious civilization, accompanied by an assortment of influences: Nathan Schild, an American Communist acting as a U.S. intelligence office; the war waif Trudchen, an accommodating Heidi; Schatzi, a charter-member Nazi, now a Russian courier and black market virtuoso. \u003ci\u003eCrazy in Berlin\u003c\/i\u003e is a lusty tale, full of irony and wit, of a stumbling American Odysseus.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eCrazy In Berlin\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e “Thomas Berger is a name to remember. . . .
