Fatherland-The Book

"Zurich was more beautiful than he had expected. Its centre reminded him of Hamburg. Old buildings clusteredaround the edge of the wide lake. Trams in a livery of green and white rattled along the front, past well-lit shops and cafes. The driver was listening to the Voice of America. In Berlin it was a blurof static; here it was clear. 'I wanna hold your hand,' sang a youthful English voice. 'I wanna hold your ha-a-and!' A thousand teenage girls screamed." (from Fatherland by Robert Harris, bestseller in 1992)
