Eight days in May

Volker Ullrich

The last week of the Third Reich has begun. Hitler is dead, but the war is not over. Everything seems to come to a standstill, and yet everything is in breathless motion. Volker Ullrich describes this "timeless time" day after day, taking the reader into a collapsing world full of drama and hope, violence and fear. His book is an unforgettable journey through time, a journey into destruction.
