Berlin Childhood at the Turn of the Century
6.99 €
Walter Benjamin is immersed in memories of his childhood. Touching sketches about growing up at the turn of the century from the famous German philosopher.

In 1900, Walter Benming, a boy from a Jewish family, was only 8 years old. Over the course of life, memories of childhood become thinner, erased. But Benjamin was able to look into the gap of time and collect from colored fragments, smells, halftones and moods wonderful, gentle sketches about dear years.

Memories of skating, collections of postcards, the smell of a Christmas tree and the rustle of books that have surrounded him since his childhood - all these tiny fragments of childhood Walter Benjamin lovingly describes, wrapping the reader in the magic of his bizarre, poetic metaphors.
