Recenzii
"One of the most important sources on the Holocaust . . . [T]he editors and Indiana University Press have performed an invaluable service by preparing an English-language edition of The Unknown Black Book." Timothy Snyder"The most comprehensive English collection of wartime and early postwar diaries, letters, testimonies, and other documents penned by Jewish victims and survivors of the Holocaust in the territories of Ukraine, Belorussia, Russia, and the Baltics. Anyone interested in studying and trying to make sense of the cruelty, collective violence, inhumane suffering, and trauma of genocide should read this unfiltered, detailed evidence of the Holocaust's impact on individuals and society." Wendy Lower, author of Nazi Empire Building and the Holocaust in Ukraine"A unique source for a fuller understanding of the tragic events during these dark years." --Walter Laqueur, editor of The Holocaust Encyclopedia"The Unknown Black Book invites the reader to enter an almost unimaginable world where atrocity became a way of life and survival a miracle. . . . Killing on the Eastern front was raw and unmediated violence. 'The Unknown Black Book' captures that grim reality of rave murder and at the same time disarms denial." Richard Overy, author of The Dictators: Hitler's Germany, Stalin's Russia"The Unknown Black Book's main contribution is in exposing the English-speaking audience, for the first time, to one of the most terrible chapters of the Holocaust, as well as in challenging the current trend of presenting the Holocaust as merely another crime against humanity." Russian Review"An essential work for anyone who wants to explore the depth of German and collaborationist crimes against the Jews." Holocaust and Genocide Studies"These accounts from those who saw what happened convey what we cannot learn from official documents about the nature of this vast criminal enterprise, in which hundreds of thousands were transformed into monsters . . . and millions of others became helpless, dehumanized, mutilated, and finally forgotten victims." Wall Street Journal"The book offers a great many insights to the reader. . . . It is impossible here to give a full account of the wealth of material contained in the book." Journal of Modern Jewish Studies
