City Horror Stories: Berlin

Martha Void drags you into the guts of a city that tried to commit suicide twice in the 20th century and failed. A city of open scars, forgotten bunkers, and a bureaucracy that doesn't end with death. Here, the famous pink pipes don't drain water; they circulate something much thicker needed for the foundations. Here, techno at 160 BPM isn't music; it's a pacemaker to keep a subterranean beast asleep. Here, crossing a red light when the Ampelmann is watching is a death sentence.10 Stories. 10 Industrial Nightmares. From the Soviet blocks of Marzahn that clone their tenants to the runways of Tempelhof where gravity works backwards. Berlin is an efficient, cold, and hungry machine. And you have just stepped onto the assembly line. Are you ready to hear the city's heartbeat? Warning: This book contains scenes of explicit violence, body horror, and claustrophobia. Not suitable for sensitive tourists.
