Two Brothers 
I'd give this book 10 stars if I could! What an amazing, amazing story. And the tension! I spent half the book wondering who Stone was (Otto or Paulus) and when I finally found out I spent the other half of the book wondering what had happened to the other! My heart bled for Frieda, so courageous and kind, and even more so for Wolfgang, ironically, because the more pitiful he became the more I remembered how he lived before - so carefree and full of life. There is nothing I can say about Dagmar
I'm really not sure what i think about this book so I'm going bang splat in the middle with 3 stars.To start I'm a huge fan of Ben Elton, I adore a lot of his books, this is however the first 'serious' book I've read of his.I enjoyed this book as it focuses alot on the time period leading up to WW2 which I found super interesting, the Olympics, the inflation. And the years following the war were also explored. At over 500 pages I really did get into this meaty book. However, I didnt feel the

It's described as his "most personal novel to date", and maybe that's the problem. This is a frankly dreadful novel. The basic premise - two brothers living a complex life through WW2 - is fair enough.But Ben Elton's usual problem in real life is that he doesn't know when to stop preaching (it was always the weakness of his stand-up comedy) and in this book, he tells us that the Nazis were bad. Then he tells us that they were very bad. They did bad things. And did you know that they were bad?
OK, lets be honest, this book does not know who its target audience is.The style is so yoof it can only surely be intended for so-called young adults, indeed I only read it because I wanted a copy for my 16-year old's Christmas stocking and over the space of 2 shopping trips ended up with 2 copies.I've led a far from sheltered life, but frankly if this is a book for young adults, there's a few too many 'c*nts' and 'f*cks' peppering its pages to make me comfortable in handing it over.In appealing
