Wow, that is some heavy reading for sure. The first book especially sounds amazing. If I was entertaining the notion of eternal life, I would immediately add it to my wish list but ah well... well, F* it, I am going to add it anyway.

I am from Germany and as you would imagine, our school teachings and journalism about WWII is very different from the US from what I have learned. (Though I recall there are some feminist writings about post-WWII definitely.)

Very cool that the second book has added a new foreword. I hope your re-read goes smoothly :-)
