Oh, I read that book last year! I liked it but I think I would have understood better its humour if I had more knowledge about German politics.

I was actually really surprised it even got translated. It's so steeped in German culture.

For example I've got the (German) audio book. It's read by Christoph Maria Herbst. He plays the main character in the sitcom Stromberg which is basically a German version of The Office and that show gets parodied in another show by replacing that main character with a version of Hitler that has Stromberg's characteristics. So it's like 3 levels of meta but the mental image you get is amazing.

Can you tell me more about this show parodying Stromberg? Is that a real thing or part of the book?

NAYRT

It's part of a series of comedy shorts parodying all kinds of German TV-shows. The Stromberg/Hitler one is "Obersalzberg" - have an episode with subs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF09Gm8weyo

SA (The subs are kind of awkward but they were the best I could find).
