Between April 20th & June 22nd of 1945 the anonymous author of A Woman in Berlin wrote about life within the falling city as it was sacked by the Russian Army. Fending off the boredom & deprivation of hiding, the author records her experiences, observations & meditations in this stark & vivid diary. Accounts of the bombing, the rapes, the rationing of food & the overwhelming terror of death are rendered in the dispassionate, though determinedly optimistic prose of a woman fighting for survival amidst the horror & inhumanity of war. This diary was first published in America in 1954 in an English translation & in Britain in 1955. A German language edition was published five years later in Geneva & was met with tremendous controversy. In 2003, over forty years later, it was republished in Germany to critical acclaim
- & more controversy. This diary has been unavailable since the 1960s & is now newly translated into English. A Woman in Berlin is an astonishing & deeply affecting account. This book has 320 pages & is 12.7 x 2.1 x 19.6 cm
