Literary career
A characterization of the book An Eye for an Eye by John Sack in Frankfurter Rundschau (taz had not accepted the article) as "Antisemitische Rohkost" (antisemitic raw food) stopped the German publishing of the translated book 1986. Geisel published among others in Haaretz, an interview with Tom Segev about Israel's founding fathers. He translated some of the work of Hannah Arendt and essays about Zionism, Palestine and Germany into German. Together with Henryk Broder he published essays and a documentary film about Jüdischer Kulturbund (Jewish Cultural Union), an unknown chapter of Jewish German cultural life during the Nazi era.
