This book is incredible! I COULD NOT put it down. The true behind-the-scenes goings on of the Nazi party (and Martha Dodd who was a downright tramp) will rivet you where you sit.
The ridiculousness of Hitler's regime and the many opportunities (failed) to stop him/it are so obvious now. The parallels between then and today are amazing (and frightening.) If you are into studying (light) human behavior-psychology these people will fascinate you. (Not that this a psychology book - I'm just saying what *I* took from it.)
AND it's a perfect chronicle of what daily life was like in 30's Berlin.
FIVE stars.
