Summary:
Rob
Spillman
, the cofounding editor of the legendary Tin House magazine, has devoted his life to the rebellious pursuit of artistic authenticity. Born in Germany to two driven musicians, his childhood was spent among the West Berlin cognoscenti, in a city two hundred miles behind the Iron Curtain. After an unsettled youth moving between divorced parents in disparate cities,
Spillman
would eventually find his way into the literary world of New York City, only to abandon it to return to Berlin just months after the Wall came down. Twenty-five and newly married,
Spillman
and his wife, the writer Elissa Schappell, moved to the anarchic streets of East Berlin in search of the bohemian lifestyle of their idols. But
Spillman
soon discovered he was chasing the one thing that had always eluded him: a place, or person, to call home. In his intimate, entertaining, and heartfelt memoir,
Spillman
narrates a colorful, music-filled coming-of-age portrait of an artist's life that is also a cultural exploration of a shifting Berlin.
Rob
Spillman
is editor of Tin House magazine. He has written for the Boston Review, GQ, Details, the New York Times Book Review, Rolling Stone and Spin. He also teaches at various MFA programs, including Columbia University.
