Wikipedia Data

Am kürzeren Ende der Sonnenallee (On the Shorter End of Sun Avenue) is the third novel by author Thomas Brussig. The novel is set in East Berlin in the real-life street of Sonnenallee sometime in the late 1970s or early 1980s. The film Sonnenallee, also written by Brussig, is based on the same characters but depicts a significantly different storyline. Unusual is the fact that the screenplay for Sonnenallee served as the basis for the novel, rather than the other way around. The novel was first translated into English by Jonathan Franzen and Jenny Watson and published by Picador (imprint) in 2023 under the title 'The Short End of the Sonnenallee.'
