Munich is a book that I read quickly, probably because the book was not that thick, but I have to admit that I was also totally captivated by the story set during four days in September 1938. Robert Harris is a writer who has the ability to write books, whether it's historical or more modern, that captivate and Munich is definitely no exception. Something I thought while reading the book was how little I really knew about the Munich agreement or, probably more accurately, I remembered, and I was fascinated to read how Chamberlain really sought to preserve peace in Europe, while Hitler seemed to strive to go to war. I found the story to be very compelling, while the men of power are planning a meeting in Munich, things are happening off the scene. Not everyone in Germany is on Hitler's side and some of them wouldn't mind getting rid of him. For Hugh Legat, one of Chamberlain's private secretaries, will these four days become very intense when an old friend contacts him again. Paul Hartmann, German diplomat and member of the anti-Hitler movement. Can they stop Hitler's plans? Munich is captivating, well-written and memorable. I'm particularly impressed with the personality descriptions and especially Chamberlain whose will was to preserve peace at any price. Was it cowardly to sign the Munich Agreement to ignore the signs that this is only a respite? Well, we have the luxury of being able to look back and know that nothing had stopped Hitler and I have to admit that I feel sympathy for Chamberlain and his peacekeeping attitude.

DAGARNA SOM AVGJORDE HISTORIEN September 1938: Hitler är fast besluten att starta ett krig. Chamberlain vill desperat bevara freden. Oenigheten leder till ett historiskt möte i München om Europas framtid. Samtidigt som führerns tåg åker söderut genom Tyskland, korsar premiärministerns flygplan den Engelska kanalen. Tillsammans med makthavarna reser två vänner som inte har setts på sex år. Hugh Legat är en av Chamberlains privata sekreterare. Paul Hartmann är en tysk diplomat och medlem av anti-Hitler-rörelsen. Nu korsas deras vägar i händelsernas centrum. Hur långt är de beredda att gå för att förhindra ett krig? München är en fängslande spionthriller om förräderi, samvete och lojalitet. Robert Harris briljerar med en historisk roman vars händelser uppvisar skrämmande paralleller till den aktuella världspolitiken. [Elib] Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
