    Reviews
    "One of the most important documents of the Hitler period." Hannah Arendt "Very, very rarely one comes across a book so remarkable and so unexpectedly convincing that it deserves more to be quoted than to be reviewed…. I beg you to read this bitterly courageous book by as good a German as one could well imagine…. it is, without a doubt, my book of the year. Its light may seem to be cast on what is now ancient history, but it speaks, in thunder, to the present. 'At the end of the world,' Reck Malleczewen says, the average man 'will want to know how the government proposes to hold next Sunday's Germany-Sweden football match on schedule.' Substitute Man United v Chelsea, and isn't that what mainly worries all of us today?" -Frederic Raphael, The Sunday Times, London "In his visceral loathing of the Nazis, Reck was not, of course, unique. From our perspective, however, he had one great advantage over most of his like-minded friends: he possessed the makings of a great diarist. True, he was not at the centre of things, but he knew the world and had contacts in it. He was something of a connoisseur of rumours, collecting and savouring stories about the latest Nazi scandal or atrocity and adding to them his own trenchant reflections. And if he was a slightly gullible listener, he was a very acute observer.' - The Financial Times "Unlike many memoirs of the Nazi period, this one is not a totally gloomy account of persecution, brutality and horrors. The dominating quality is its tough exuberance and (often black) satirical humor. From a great height of aristocratic disrelish Fritz Reck-Malleczewen looks down on the Nazis as lower middle class scum, vengefully greedy for power, with Hitler as their avatar, at once sinister and ridiculous' - The Wall Street Journal "His descriptions of Nazi Germany are not those of the scholar bent on documentation or of the victim who was tortured by sadists. Instead, we are offered a diarist's observations, set down with passion, outrage, and almost unbearable sadness-and set down (among other reasons) to show how it easy it would have been for him to be a part of what he came to detest." - The New Yorker "It is stunning to read, for it is not often that invective achieves the level of art, and rarer still that hatred assumes a tragic grandeur." The New York Times, "Very, very rarely one comes across a book so remarkable and so unexpectedly convincing that it deserves more to be quoted than to be reviewed…. I beg you to read this bitterly courageous book by as good a German as one could well imagine." -Frederic Raphael, The Sunday Times "It is stunning to read, for it is not often that invective achieves the level of art, and rarer still that hatred assumes a tragic grandeur." -The New York Times "Observations set down with passion, outrage, and almost unbearable sadness. . . astonishing, compelling, and unnerving." - The New Yorker "In his visceral loathing of the Nazis, Reck was not, of course, unique.

    Synopsis
    Hailed as one of the most important works on the Hitler period, this is an "astonishing, compelling, and unnerving" portrait of life in Nazi Germany between 1936 and 1944--from a man who nearly shot Hitler himself ( The New Yorker ). Friedrich Reck might seem an unlikely rebel against Nazism. Not just a conservative but a rock-ribbed reactionary, he played the part of a landed gentleman, deplored democracy, and rejected the modern world outright. To Reck, the Nazis were ruthless revolutionaries in Gothic drag, and helpless as he was to counter the spell they had cast on the German people, he felt compelled to record the corruptions of their rule. The result is less a diary than a sequence of stark and astonishing snapshots of life in Germany between 1936 and 1944. We see the Nazis at the peak of power, and the murderous panic with which they respond to approaching defeat; their travesty of traditional folkways in the name of the Volk; and the author's own missed opportunity to shoot Hitler. This riveting book is not only, as Hannah Arendt proclaimed it, "one of the most important documents of the Hitler period," but a moving testament of a decent man struggling to do the right thing in a depraved world., A moving testament of a decent if sometimes deluded man struggling to do the right thing in a depraved world., Friedrich Reck might seem an unlikely rebel against Nazism. Not just a conservative but a rock-ribbed reactionary, he played the part of a landed gentleman, deplored democracy, and rejected the modern world outright.
