[edit] Tagged as advert

After reading this article, I found it not to be subjective enough for an encyclopedia article. A number of the parts of this article sound like obvious advertising, such as "Stasiland has been lauded for powerfully using literary techniques in the writing of non-fiction, and variously described as ‘a dark, stylish narrative’ (The Age Book of the Year Awards) and ‘a masterpiece of investigative reporting’ (Sunday Times)," and "Stasiland is a moving investigation of extraordinary human conscience and courage in the face of totalitarianism." True, it needs some minor cleanup in other ways, but I think the advertising issue should be resolved first. Keith Davies Lehwald 23:11, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
