Besonders interessant fand ich mangels Kenntnissen darüber das Kapitel über die Reichsfrauenführerin Gertrud Scholz-Klink, welche ich – was nach der Lektüre nicht mehr wundert – nie auf dem Radar hatte.
Und nebenbei erfährt man noch, warum Hitler Vegetarier war. Auf den Grund wäre ich niemals gekommen...
This is some real pop history. I now know more about Goebbels' sex life than I ever thought, or wished, I would. Each chapter of the book is a little biography of one important Nazi woman. The writing isn't especially good and there's some shoddy editing at times (paragraphs get repeated, things like that). There is no throughline between the different chapters, no greater point, it's just a collection of little biographies and that's that. I had a lot of fun reading this, it is very entertaining. One thing I was worried about before reading is that such a work could easily downplay the horrors of Nazi rule. I think that, while the book wasn't about the crimes and horrors, when it did mention them it did so appropriately. There was no excusing or downplaying of any person's action.
