Story
Out of the ashes of the First World War, Germany launched an unprecedented political project: its first democratic government. The Weimar Republic, named for the city where it was established, endured for only fifteen years before it was toppled by the insurgent Nazi Party in 1933. In Vertigo, prizewinning historian Harald Jähner tells the Republic’s full story, capturing a nation caught in a whirlwind of uncertainty and struggling toward a better future.

Story
The Titans of the Twentieth Century addresses an age-old question: what is the impact of individuals on history? The first half of the twentieth century offered political leaders enormous scope for changing the world. This book consists of essays about eight who, for better and for worse, did just that. Individually, each chapter offers fresh and often surprising portraits of the twentieth century's titans. Collectively, the essays present a vivid and revealing portrait of a turbulent half-century that shaped the world of today.

Story
No Road Leading Back is the remarkable story of a dozen prisoners who escaped from the site where more than 70,000 Jews were shot in the Lithuanian forest of Ponar after the Nazi invasion of Eastern Europe in 1941. Anxious to hide the incriminating evidence of the murders, the S.S. later in the war enslaved a group of Jews to exhume every one of the bodies and incinerate them all in a months-long labor—an episode whose specifics are staggering and disturbing, even within the context of the Holocaust.

Story
"Considerate se questa è una donna | Senza capelli e senza nome | Senza piú forza di ricordare | Vuoti gli occhi e freddo il grembo | Come una rana d'inverno". È con questa immagine scarnificata che Primo Levi, nell'incipit di Se questo è un uomo, indica la necessità di riflettere sulla condizione delle donne prigioniere ad Auschwitz. Eppure per molti anni la storiografia e la testimonianza hanno appiattito l'esperienza femminile in una declinazione universale, in un neutro linguistico che, dimenticando i corpi sessuati, ha reso opaca l'intenzionalità stessa dello sterminio.

Story
Hence this is a story without precedent, a story in which Elton John plays a royal funeral, Mick Jagger gets a knighthood, Bob Dylan picks up the Nobel Prize, the Beatles become, if anything, bigger than the Beatles and it's beginning to look as though all of the above will, thanks to the march of technology, be playing Las Vegas forever.

Story
Гуго Фишер, известный криминолог, приезжает проводить расследование. Под Рождество 1943 года. В Освенцим. Предыдущие десять лет Гуго провел в Берлине, где на происходящее в концлагерях в основном закрывали глаза: страшные слухи по городу, конечно, ходили, но разумные люди не станут верить слухам, правда? И теперь Гуго сталкивается с ужасом, к которому он, человек незлой и отнюдь не боец, совершенно не готов. Между тем берлинское начальство интересует одна-единственная смерть, случившаяся там, где смерть — страшная повседневность: найден мертвым врач, который ставил опыты на заключенных.

Story
Ein verblichener Stoffpierrot, ein Medaillon – so schlicht und klein diese Objekte auch sein mögen, jedes birgt ein großes Geheimnis. Jedes wurde einst seinem Besitzer von den Nazis entrissen. Nun soll die Französin Irène sie im Auftrag der Arolsen Archive den Familien der Opfer zurückgeben. Über eine Nummer im Stoff stößt Irène auf den 15-jährigen Lazar, der Buchenwald überlebte und dessen Spur sich als junger Mann in Griechenland verliert. Und sie findet Unglaubliches über die Polin Wita heraus, die das Medaillon in Auschwitz bei sich trug.
