Hitler: A Career
A keen chronicle of the unlikely rise to power of Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) and a dissection of the Third Reich (1933-1945), but also an analysis of mass psychology and how the desperate crowd can be deceived and shepherded to the slaughterhouse.
The Look of Silence
An optician grapples with the Indonesian mass killings of 1965-1966, during which his older brother was exterminated.
