Dark-comedy satire on the unexpected return of Hitler.

Recommended for readers who appreciate humour that pushes boundaries. The author does an excellent job of making a historically reviled figure comical, challenging readers' preconceived notions. It's also thought-provoking, shedding light on how propaganda can be disseminated in modern society through social media.

Description

HE'S BACKBerlin, 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.AND HE'S FÜHRIOUSPeople 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, ans 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 BACKhas stunned and then thrilled millions of readers with is 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.
