Into the Darkness (Darkness #1)

Product Information

Although it unmasks the liars, killers and torturers responsible for Tazmamart, it refuses to dwell on them. Although it is told in the first person, it is not an autobiography. Although it is technically a novel, it is a novel stripped, like its subject, of all life's comforts. For the first time, in all these many days, I had given him no help. There was no more time. He gripped the table with both hands as if he was holding on to it. “But I was there,” he said then, in a curiously dry tone of resignation. These few sentences had taken almost half an hour to pronounce. “So yes,” he said finally, very quietly, “In reality I share the guilt ... my guilt ... only now in these talks ... now that I have talked about it all for the first time ...” he stopped.

Into The Darkness: A Mystery Thriller (Mitch Tanner Book 2)

There is something about Gitta Sereny's writing that reminds me of sitting down with my mother, who also lived through the war as a (slightly younger) woman. She brings an immediacy, almost first-hand account to the retelling of these terrible tales, probably because she interviewed her subjects first hand. Peccato nel finale lasci aperta la porta a una ventata di retorica sentimentale: ma il timone rimane ugualmente saldo nelle mani di Sereny che conduce il lettore verso orizzonti che meritano tutte le esplorazioni possibili.

Into the Darkness

Both MC completely flawed with traumatic pasts and mental illness. These two belonged together. Each one understands the other and with no judgment. As much as I love both characters, Him’s was something else, to get into his head as to why and talking to his demon.

Into the Darkness’ Review: Making Excuses for Collaboration ‘Into the Darkness’ Review: Making Excuses for Collaboration

Really, when one wants to evaluate how they [the guards] behaved and what they were, one must not forget their incredible power, their autonomy within their narrow and yet, as far as we were concerned, unlimited field.” Like the other two heroines I've read in Michaels' books, Meg is a strong, feisty indiviudal who doesn't have any problems giving her opinions or holding her own against the rest of the characters. She has her own distinct personality that is shaped by her and her own experiences, she isn't overly influenced by her family, eventhough she has a strong sense of loyalty to them. However, Stangl was not a fanatic. He sought, according to his own confessions, to do his job as it should be done. Stangl wants to convince the author that he did not have another choice. The former commandant attempts to shift the blame onto Globocnik, who was his superior and had been responsible for the murder of around three million men, women, and children. Stangl seems to have thought that Globocnik would not allow him to get out. If he had rejected his appointment as commandant of the extermination camps he would have been arrested or even killed. But the truth is no one can say what could have happened to Franz Stangl had he firmly refused to do what he did. THIS AUTHOR PLAGIARIZED A VICTIM OF SA's STORY AND GLAMOURIZED IT WHILE ALSO USING HIM AS THE NARRATOR OF SAID STORY

Han, liksom jag, kunde ha sagt upp sig på studs och säga att "det här vill jag inte vara med på". Men vilka hade konsekvenserna blivit? Och är det rimligt att mina barn får betala för mina principer? Eller Stangls familj gå under för hans? Och vem förutom en själv har egentligen rätt att besvara den frågan?
