Aftermath: Life in the Fallout of the Third Reich 1945-1955 |
This reviewer is old enough to remember the sad sight of displaced persons (DPs) undertaking menial work in Germany not able, or in most cases not willing, to return to their country of birth, supposing of course that it still existed. This is a nuanced, graphic and shocking account of a nation undergoing profound change. It is a sobering reminder of the horrors that follow warfare and as such tells a story that should never be forgotten.
