Who was Adolf Hitler? Itˇ¦s a question writers have been trying to answer for more than sixty years. But, after thousands of biographies, histories, novels and films, many fundamental questions remain: how do we explain Hitlerˇ¦s hatred? Where did it come from? Could it happen again?
Norman Mailer sets out to respond to these and other crucial aspects of Hitlerˇ¦s personality in his extraordinary new novel. Spanning three generations and a hundred years of history, the book brings to life the Hitlers ˇV grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, siblings and young Adolf ˇV in an energetic and highly entertaining family saga.
