Finally, chapter six looks at Holocaust fiction, and how a writer or movie-maker might wish to style a story and populate his dramas with real people, and with such an overbearing legacy. It adds a personal touch and consideration to this book, which is always readable yet understandably academic, discusses the general and specific, has the bearing of convincing truth while allows for discussion, and is both very amenable yet perhaps too specialised for a general recommendation.
I must thank the beautiful people of Beautiful Books for my review copy. We also have a review of [[The Reader by Bernhard Schlink and Carol Brown Janeway]].
For a flawless look at how some German people actively questioned their generation’s Nazi past, we recommend [[The Baader-Meinhof Complex by Stefan Aust]]. You might also enjoy [[Angela Merkel: The Chancellor and Her World by Stefan Kornelius]].
