Day after day, over a year, Gesine Cresspahl tells her ten-year-old daughter Marie about her own family history, about life in Mecklenburg in the Weimar Republic, during Nazi rule, in the subsequent Soviet occupation zone and the first years in the GDR. At the same time, the novel describes the everyday life of mother and daughter in the metropolis of New York in the epoch year 1967/1968, in the midst of the Vietnam War and student protests. In the "Anniversaries" Uwe Johnson unfolds a unique panorama of German history in the 20th century - a "reading trip around the world" (Reinhard Baumgart) into the turbulent present day of New York in 1968 and at the same time into the history of a German family since the Weimar Republic.
