"A brilliant book" RUSSELL KANE "Brilliant and hilarious" KEN FOLLETT
A box-office-hit film now available on NETFLIX
A two-part BBC Radio 4 Dramatisation directed by and starring David Threlfall (Shameless)
Berlin, Summer 2011. Adolf Hitler wakes up on a patch of open ground, alive and well. Things have changed - no Eva Braun, no Nazi party, no war. Hitler barely recognises his beloved Fatherland, filled with immigrants and run by a woman.
People certainly recognise him, albeit as a flawless impersonator who refuses to break character. The unthinkable, the inevitable happens, and the ranting Hitler goes viral, becomes a YouTube star, gets his own T.V. show, and people begin to listen. But the Führer has another programme with even greater ambition - to set the country he finds a shambles back to rights.
Look Who's Back stunned and then thrilled 1.5 million German readers with its fearless approach to the most taboo of subjects. Naive yet insightful, repellent yet strangely sympathetic, the revived Hitler unquestionably has a spring in his step.

Recenzii
Be warned. This book is funny. Very funny
Worryingly believable (time travelling despots aside) and unsettling. But also very funny
A brilliant book
Brilliant and hilarious
Incredible . . . Very funny
Laugh-out-loud funny . . . An uproarious, disturbing book that will resonate long after you turn the final page
Both funny and frightening . . . A powerful and important book
Peculiar, provocative and very funny . . . It makes you laugh and forces you to think
Wonderfully inventive, very funny and superbly written
The Hitler of Look Who's Back has aged not a whit: his fascist views are intact, and he is as foul-tempered and misanthropic as ever
There's no question that the novel has hit upon the key paradox of our modern obsession with Hitler
The jokes are very funny . . . rollicking, enjoyable
A satire on the cult of personality . . . nicely played
This uproariously funny satire will have you in stitches
'An uproarious, disturbing book that will resonate long after you turn the final page' Caroline Jowett, Daily Express.
'Be warned. This book is funny. Very funny' Rebecca Morrison, Independent.
'Both funny and frightening, this is a subtle, historical study of the commanding nature of the fanatical demagogue, as well as a savage critique of contemporary western culture. It is a powerful and important book' Sue Gaisford, Independent.
