HHhH e-bog

"e;Captivating . . . [HHhH] has a vitality very different from that of most historical fiction."e; -James Wood, The New Yorker The basis for the major motion picture, "e;The Man with the Iron Heart "e; available on streaming and home video. HHhH: "e;Himmlers Hirn heisst Heydrich,"e; or "e;Himmler's brain is called Heydrich."e; The most lethal man in Hitler's cabinet, Reinhard Heydrich seemed indestructible-until two exiled operatives, a Slovak and a Czech, killed him and changed the course of history. In Laurent Binet's mesmerizing debut, we follow Jozef Gabcik and Jan Kubis from their dramatic escape from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia to their fatal attack on Heydrich and their own brutal deaths in the basement of a Prague church. A seamless blend of memory, actuality, and Binet's own remarkable imagination, HHhH is at once thrilling and intellectually engrossing-a fast-paced novel of the Second World War that is also a profound meditation on the debt we owe to history.
