### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Nice Read
  

*by B***K on Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2018*

Nicely written with valuable insights into another society.  The only negative was hundreds of nagging Kindle-version errors, which we were compelled to correct using Calibre before we finished the book.My wife was born and raised in the GDR and we married in that country before she was allowed to emigrate to the USA. Therefore, we have first hand experience with the Stasi and their iron grip on the society.The author’s positive GDR prospective is valid. Many citizens had a very good life there, were able to nicely cope with a belief system that was inconsistent, idealistic and, at the end, could never survive in the modern world. While having a gnawing desire to see the world beyond the border, most GDR citizens avoided Stasi scrutiny by demonstrating obedience to the communist doctrine.The Bicycle Teacher’s origin from a backward Australian society provides a good rationale for his high comfort level toward a communist society. Michael's gushing enthusiasm of a communist society seems a bit of a blind, simplistic stretch. However, even though my high-tech USA background led to what I believe a more realistic view of a controlling, backward, non-competitive GDR environment, the author’s perspective is believable.I would have liked to read more about his family’s ability to fit into the Perth environment.

    Learned a lot
  

*by J***O on Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2020*

I found this story fascinating in that I learned a lot about east germany and about socialism, which sounded good, except when seen from the wessels. I remember the wall coming down, but I was too busy in my life to pay attention to it, and it makes me wonder how all of that worked out. I don't remember if the story was real, although usually true tales show pictures. If it wasn't real, it was written as if it were.  I enjoyed it a lot.

    Life in East Germany
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2016*

The Bicycle Teacher is the story of a young Australian, Michael Smith, who moves to East Germany in 1981 as a guest worker.  He marries an East German girl and they make their life in East Germany.  His life there was fulfilling and satisfying for him.  He rose from a mechanic to an English teacher under their system.  He loved his life in the GDR and thought communism was a perfect solution for his future.  The fall of the Berlin Wall brought his happiness to a crashing halt.  He hated West Berlin and what he thought it stood for. He misses the way life was in East Germany and becomes disappointed after the reunification of Germany.  He decides then to move his family back to Australia.  This was an educational book on life in East Germany but from what I've read, he had it pretty nice compared to others who struggled.  A lot of errors in the Kindle edition but still a good read.
