Hamburg, Germany

The next morning, Espinoza and Pelletier called at the publisher’s apartment, on the third floor of an old building in Hamburg’s upper town.

Only Espinoza and Morini attended the symposium, and since they were in Hamburg anyway and killing time they went to visit the Bubis publishing house...

When Bubis returned to Hamburg, in September 1945, Mrs. Gottlieb was living in the direst poverty, and Bubis, who by then had lost his wife, brought her to live with him.

Germany was home to his publishing house or to the idea he had of a publishing house, a German publishing house, a publishing house with its headquarters in Hamburg.

At the publishing house’s opening ceremony, with all of Hamburg’s officials and artists and politicians invited.

When Archimboldi arrived in Hamburg, the publishing house hadn’t yet attained the high level that Mr. Bubis had set as a second goal.

Some of the streets of Hamburg, Archimboldi could see as they walked, were in a worse state than the most devastated streets of Cologne, although in Hamburg he had the impression that the reconstruction efforts were more in earnest.

In all, he spent three days in Hamburg.

...and it was also the last time he saw the baroness, at least in Hamburg.

Swiss, why on earth he lived in Hamburg no one knew, and the baroness came out of her office and so did the head of publicity.

Thanatos had come to Hamburg, a city he knew like the palm of his hand

That night, while Lotte was at the hotel drinking orange juice and eating biscuits and watching late-night Mexican TV, she made a longdistance phone call to the Bubis offices in Hamburg.
