520 1 $a"For decades, Dixon Greenwood has lived the Hollywood life - the studio intrigues, the abrupt rise and fall of careers, grand aspirations come and gone. Dix's own fame rests in his one great work, Summer, 1921, a cult classic. Now he believes he has lost his imagination and genius for reading the times. His audience has vanished. So, on a kind of personal rescue mission, he embarks on a three-month stay in Germany, the birthplace, as he sees it, of the murderous twentieth century.".
520 8 $a"In postwar, post-Wall Berlin, Dix finds the winter skies gray and the cultural climate turbulent. While fellow artists debate politics and art, he discovers that a nostalgic Prussian costume drama is the most popular program on German television. With decidedly mixed feelings, he agrees to direct an episode - a fateful decision that unexpectedly reunites him with an actress who disappeared from the set of Summer, 1921 thirty years before.
520 8 $aTheir final collaboration draws Dix into the heart of the German century and back to his own imagination."--BOOK JACKET.
