I think, need to check this , 'Schindlers list', and books that came out soon after the 2WW where people wrote of their experiences in black, surreal works whose titles I have lost but who turn up when people die and their relatives turn their books over to op shops.

Setting these against what I learnt about the battle of Stalingrad, and lines of old men and young boys with unreadable expressions on exhaused, hungry faces sent to battle by Hitler to fight in the last days; the young German activists who saw what was happening and acted openly against it, the Germans who helped Jewish people hanging from lamposts as warnings.

The anit-semetism rife worldwide at the time. The refusal by Australia to let Jewish people into Australia after the war. The speech by Churchill admiring Hitler and members of the British aristocracy joining in support of him. A scattering of information of which this book is another piece. The hard thing is that no matter what I read about the German people the Holocaust is huger.

Because it Is, not because it has been presented as such. This book talks about the hugeness of it and about how it affected one family in a way that brings me closer to a sense of what it must have been like. It doesn't condone it, the author battles with the question of her grandfathers memberhip of the Nazi people.

Even I feel I must add details about the level of his memberhip but I don't think that would be the right thing to do here. Just as this is one family's story, each reader must approach it in their own way also. A question that haunts and has haunted and still haunts me is, if I were there, at the time, would I have been all that different?

My country has its own genocide. My past has its own ghosts. We talk about it here, but not as much as it should be, and there is still silence and denial and excuse making, and worse. The German people, according to this book, were silent about the Holocaust and have been condemned for this as well.

Refresh and try again. Diary of a Man in Despair. Self preservation is always 1 in peoples minds. This book talks about the hugeness of it and about how it affected one family in a way that brings me closer to a sense of what it must have been like.

The author does not believe her grandfather could have been ignorant of his Jewish friends, patients, colleagues, disappearing. Sometimes silence is rejection, but sometimes it is because the experience is so huge and the personal connection so apparent that there are no words. Not because the involvment or accountability is denied, but because people don't know what to do? In Germany to speak against what was happening was to die, sometimes their families as well.

Perhaps that is why the silence? Because deep inside we are forced to realise that no matter how hard we try to be good people we we can't make that final sacrifice when the outcome will be to fail to make any difference? But we know that is not an excuse. Jan 12, Carrie Harville rated it really liked it.

I was challenged to keep reading this book. It moves very slowly and there are a lot of repetitive details such as street names that do not really contribute to the story.
