   Why is 'look who's back' so popular?

   • Chalk up the great popularity of “Look Who’s Back” to its author’s basic act of provocation and to the highly polished sitcom sensibility that works so well here. One running gag counts on Hitler to misunderstand everything about progress and to attribute as much of it as he can to Aryan brilliance. What is this thing called Vikipedia?

   Does Adolf mean 'look who's back'?

   • Before long, his greatest challenge becomes convincing people that yes, it really is him, and yes, he really means it. "Look Who's Back" is a black satire of modern media-bloated society, seen through the eyes of the Führer himself. Adolf is by turns repellent, sympathetic and hilarious, but always fascinating.

   What can Adolf Hitler do in look who's back?

   • In Look Who's Back, Adolf Hitler mysteriously time-travels from the ending days of WWII to the 2011 Germany, so the guy naturally has a lot of catch-ups to do. So, what can the former dictator do in the age of reality TV shows, consumerism, EU and Neo-capitalism? Answer: becomes a TV star!

   Why has this review been hidden?

   • This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers. Most people have praised this witty satire, though a few elderly Germans and Holocaust survivors seem, for some unaccountable reason, to find it offensive. I do not properly understand their objections, and have decided to follow the majority opinion.

   Apr 15, 2014 · Timur Vermes’ highly satirical novel, Look Who’s Back, puts us firmly in the head of Adolf Hitler as he awakens in the 21st Century, unable to explain his long absence or the fact that he is still fifty-six years old despite almost seventy years having passed.
