Een confronterend boek over een onderwerp waarover decennia lang werd gezwegen. Op 30 april 1945 schoot Adolf Hitler zich in Berlijn een kogel door het hoofd. Op hetzelfde moment begaven zich tijdens het binnentrekken van het Rode Leger in het stadje Demmin honderden mensen naar rivieren en bossen om zich daar van het leven te beroven. Hele families werden weggevaagd, ouders doodden hun kinderen. Demmin is slechts één van de vele voorbeelden: in het hele land werden duizenden mensen bevangen door de zelfmoordepidemie. Dit boek is gebaseerd op dagboeken, brieven, verslagen en herinneringen, en gaat vooral over de ondergang van gewone mensen. De massazelfmoorden van 1945 zijn tot op de dag van vandaag een verdrongen hoofdstuk in de contemporaine geschiedenis. Vele tientallen jaren lang had niemand ook maar enige belangstelling voor het psychisch lijden van de achterblijvers en naaste verwanten. De reden voor zowel de zelfmoordgolf als het zwijgen, verdringen en vergeten was dezelfde: een vlucht voor het onverdraaglijke. De diepere oorzaken waren echter weggestopt in het binnenste van de Duitsers, die twaalf jaar in een emotionele uitzonderingstoestand hadden geleefd. Florian Huber belicht het verhaal van de gemoedsgesteldheid en gedachtewereld van de mensen in het Derde Rijk aan de hand van historische verslagen en onderzoek van hun geestesgesteldheid - een fascinerende blik in de gevoelens van eenvoudige mensen die hun ondergang tegemoet gingen.

Roaring in the Twenties, NAZI-hoofdstad tot halverwege 1945 en daarna hét symbool van de Koude Oorlog; Sinclair McKay laat zien waarom je de twintigste eeuw pas kunt begrijpen als je Berlijn begrijpt. In ‘Berlijn’ laat historicus Sinclair McKay dankzij een haast duizelingwekkende hoeveelheid informatie en verhalen (van kunst tot film, van opera tot literatuur, van wetenschap tot architectuur) ons de stad zien zoals we haar nooit eerder zagen. Nagenoeg de hele vorige eeuw was Berlijn het epicentrum van de wereldgeschiedenis. Net na de Eerste Wereldoorlog was de stad een metropool van wetenschap, cultuur en seksuele vrijheid, in de jaren dertig werd het de hoofdstad van het naziregime. En na de Tweede Wereldoorlog werd Berlijn in tweeën gesplitst door een muur en was daarmee decennialang hét symbool van de Koude Oorlog. Je kunt de twintigste eeuw niet begrijpen zonder Berlijn te begrijpen; en Berlijn kun je niet begrijpen zonder de ervaringen van haar inwoners te begrijpen.

The extraordinary German bestseller on the final days of the Third Reich One of the least understood stories of the Third Reich is that of the extraordinary wave of suicides, carried out not just by much of the Nazi leadership, but also by thousands of ordinary Germans, during in the war's closing period. Some of these were provoked by straightforward terror in the face of advancing Soviet troops or by personal guilt, but many could not be explained in such relatively straightforward terms. Florian Huber's remarkable book, a bestseller in Germany, confronts this terrible phenomenon. Other countries have suffered defeat, but not responded in the same way. What drove whole families, who in many cases had already withstood years of deprivation, aerial bombing and deaths in battle, to do this? In a brilliantly written, thoughtful and original work, Huber sees the entire project of the Third Reich as a sequence of almost overwhelming emotions and scenes for many Germans. He describes some of the key events which shaped the period from the First World War to the end of the Second, showing how the sheer intensity, allure and ferocity of Hitler's regime swept along millions. Its sudden end was, for many of them, simply impossible to absorb.

It was the first war we could not win. At no other time since World War II have two superpowers met in battle. Now Max Hastings, preeminent military historian takes us back to the bloody bitter struggle to restore South Korean independence after the Communist invasion of June 1950. Using personal accounts from interviews with more than 200 vets—including the Chinese—Hastings follows real officers and soldiers through the battles. He brilliantly captures the Cold War crisis at home—the strategies and politics of Truman, Acheson, Marshall, MacArthur, Ridgway, and Bradley—and shows what we should have learned in the war that was the prelude to Vietnam.

What would you do if, at nine years of age, you arrived home to find your family and friends had disappeared, rounded up by the Nazis? Jack Kuper lived this nightmare, and Child of the Holocaust is the suspenseful true story of his desperate attempts to survive persecution and extermination in Poland. Forced to abandon his Jewish upbringing and disguise his true identity to hide from the death squads, Jack grew up a stranger in his own skin. Initially finding refuge with a local family, Jack's youthful tenderness for daughter-of-the-house Genia belies the terrifying aggression and virulent destruction outside. Eventually turned out by a loving foster mother in fear for her family's life, Jack wandered the treacherous Polish soil. This is his unforgettable account of suffering and, ultimately, survival in the face of the most extreme privation and hatred. For this new edition of a lost classic, Jack Kuper has revisited the manuscript for the first time since he wrote it more than forty years ago, adding new material and including the real names of those who helped him.

Als kind van een verstoord huishouden confronteert het elfjarige scharminkel genaamd Toine een middelbaar onderwijssysteem. Ondanks dat hij zich door schaamte gedwongen voelt stil te blijven, blijft hij opstaan voor het recht anders te denken. Leraren, geschokt, wijzen de verbale opstand van hun leerling af. De schijnbare verbanning van de jongen uit de burgermaatschappij maakt hem depressief. Hij begint aan zelfmoord te denken. Om zichzelf te redden, ontsnapt hij in dagdromen. Hij begint een schrijfhobby en vertroebelt de grenzen tussen droom en werkelijkheid. In gedachten heeft de jongen zichzelf ervan overtuigd dat hij een militaire rekruut is die in een twee-onder-één-kap bunker woont. Wanneer zijn generaal, Bonifatius, en zuster Gertrude de jongen naar een psycholoog brengen, stort zijn wereld in. Zal Toine het schooljaar overleven? Deze novelle bekritiseert wetenschappelijk onderwijs. Het boek trekt het motief van een samenleving om politieke correctheid te handhaven in twijfel.

A memoir of brutality, heroism and personal discovery from Europe's dark heart, revealing one of the most extraordinary untold stories of the Second World War In the spring of 1945, at Rechnitz on the Austrian-Hungarian border, not far from the front lines of the advancing Red Army, Countess Margit Batthyany gave a party in her mansion. The war was almost over, and the German aristocrats and SS officers dancing and drinking knew it was lost. Late that night, they walked down to the village, where 180 enslaved Jewish labourers waited, made them strip naked, and shot them all, before returning to the bright lights of the party. It remained a secret for decades, until Sacha Batthyany, who remembered his great-aunt Margit only vaguely from his childhood as a stern, distant woman, began to ask questions about it. A Crime in the Family is Sacha Batthyany's memoir of confronting these questions, and of the answers he found. It is one of the last untold stories of Europe's nightmare century, spanning not just the massacre at Rechnitz, the inhumanity of Auschwitz, the chaos of wartime Budapest and the brutalities of Soviet occupation and Stalin's gulags, but also the silent crimes of complicity and cover-up, and the damaged generations they leave behind. Told partly through the surviving journals of others from the author's family and the vanished world of Rechnitz, A Crime in the Family is a moving and revelatory memoir in the vein of The Hare with the Amber Eyes and The House by the Lake. It uncovers barbarity and tragedy but also a measure of peace and reconciliation. Ultimately, Batthyany discovers that although his inheritance might be that of monsters, he does not bear it alone.

Using his skills as a journalist, historian, and memoirist, Sebastian Haffner (author ofThe Meaning of Hitler) traces the development of the German Empire (1871-1945) and the central role of warfare that characterized the Reich. Haffner contends that Germany’s unfavorable geographic position had much to do with the state’s belligerence and that, from its inception, created the conflicts that culminated in two world wars. “The fruit of decades of study, the moving and sometimes very personal testament of an author whose works more than any others have influenced public opinion and challenged academic historians.” — Die Zeit “A brilliant work from the top hat of a powerful historical magician.” — Rudolf Augstein, Der Spiegel “A thoroughly successful work.” — Wiener Tagblatt “A book with more historical insights than a whole pile of learned volumes.” —Münchner Abendzeitung “The history of the Third Reich in just 43 pages? Impossible to do more than discuss a few features superficially. But not with Sebastian Haffner. This brilliant thinker — a journalist turned historian — reveals the fundamental lines of development in a way that anyone can follow. The pages bristle with questions and unexpected answers. The 300 pages of ‘The Ailing Empire’ contain more clever and original insights into German history between 1871 and 1945 than many a weighty tome.” — Dieter Wunderlich “This illuminating survey by a German journalist focuses on the continuities and discontinuities of the modern German Reich ... Haffner argues that the founding of the state was never regarded as a climactic achievement but rather as a springboard for expansion, and that Germany’s unfavorable geographic position had much to do with the state’s armed belligerence. The author also contends that the Reich was self-destructive almost from the beginning, creating a host of enemies who brought it to its knees in two world wars and eventually divided it. He describes how Hitler accelerated the catastrophic finish of the Reich by inopportunely taking on both the Russians and Americans, then tried to turn military defeat into the annihilation of the German people with his Nero Directive of March 18-19, 1945.” — Publishers Weekly “[The Ailing Empire] tells the story of yesterday’s Germans who made today. It is a story Americans must understand.” — San-Diego Union “Sebastian Haffner has written a book that traces the path of Germany’s political self-destruction, and offers a realistic account of the war’s real causes ... It is a highly readable analysis of the road from Bismarck to Hitler ... This book, based on many previously unpublished accounts, is a devastating portrait of human society.” —Chattanooga Times “This is a highly readable analysis of German history over the last century. A long-time journalist, Haffner asserts that the foundations of the German Reich were an inadequate basis for a modern nation state and contained the seeds of its own destruction. Though lacking documentation, Haffner’s first-hand recollections of the Nazi era are most interesting. Particularly noteworthy are his observations on daily life during the regime and his judgment regarding those literary and artistic ‘antis’ who chose ‘internal emigration’ within the Hitler state.” — Library Journal
