These feuilletons (nineteen of them) were then compiled into a book F*nf Minuten Amerika and published by Paul Zsolnay Verlag the next year, 1931. In his book, Salten provides subjective observations of American society and nature, and the main emphasis is on his personal impressions and opinions. He conversed with movie stars, society women, farmers, and fellow writers like Upton Sinclair. In his commentary, Salten is both admiring and critical.
