All Tomorrow's Parties
“Rob Spillman grew up in Berlin during the Cold War and his stories related to crossing and being near the Wall are chilling and interesting; his constant longing for the home where he grew up is something that is very familiar to me. The contrast between the Berlin of the ’60s when Rob was a child living with his musician dad and the Berlin of 1989, post-Wall but pre-reunification, was gripping stuff.”
