An uncle* of mine has written a book/memoir of his life:
The Kraut: On Being German after 1940
He was born in Germany, grew up in the U.K., and emigrated to the U.S. at the age of 17.
I've been reading it during my lunch times, in between walking** and eating. Some of it is rather dark, topic-wise, and some of it is hard to follow. But it's quite interesting.
It's available on Kindle or as a paperback, if anyone is curious about it.
* My mom's half-sister's cousin's husband's first wife's son.
** I've increased my walking circuit by about 10 minutes. My pedometer indicates I'm now getting up to about 8000 steps per day doing so.
