The Healing Wound: Experiences and Reflections, Germany, 1938-2001

"[A]n astonishing, subtle study of many Holocaust perpetrators and participants."? Publishers Weekly, starred review One of the most vivid explorations ever of the legacy of Nazism in Germany. No person has examined the lingering evil of Nazism more deeply than Gitta Sereny. As much a work of autobiography as a work of journalism, The Healing Wound spans over sixty years of Sereny's investigations into the darker side of history, from her first encounter with the Nazis at a Nuremberg rally in 1934 at age eleven to her chilling interviews with the highest Nazi officials. The Healing Wound combines political statement with the haunting personal memories of one of the twentieth century's most relentless witnesses. 16 pages of b/w photographs.
