Review: Seeds of modern discontent - Asbrink dissects the year 1947, detailing cultural and geopolitical events that continue to have influence today. The book is both engaging and harrowing.
Review: A Good Informed Read on the Aftermath of WWII - Elisabeth Asbrink brings a fresh perspective to the year 1947 ... just two years after the end of WWII. Pretty good read with a compelling middle section about the breakup and devastation caused by the war on her own family. One of the important messages is the downplay of the Holocaust by the prosecuting Allies at Nuremberg and elsewhere. The rather large number of responsible Nazis who ended up free and made their way to Argentina and other places. That was all shocking to read ... I've grown up thinking most of those responsible were brought to justice. It just ain't so. There are a number of side stories that flow through the months of the year. The chapters are named by the corresponding month ... chapter 1 is January, chapter 2 is February ... etc. In the end I'm better off and more knowledgeable for having read the book. Hats off to Elisabeth Asbrink.
