Unfinished Metropolis: once and future Berlin (2020)

Germany – the "late nation" – rushed to catch-up with what other nations had. Berlin as its capital was destined to absorb most of the shock waves this coming of age of Germany would stir up. Certainly when it came to urban planning.

You could very well see the "unfinished metropolis" as a focal point of Germany as an "unfinished nation", which includes the unusualness in German history to have a capital city at all.

This looks like an extremely interesting book. I have yet to visit Berlin but I’m absolutely fascinated by urban histories like this.
