A Woman in Berlin: Eight Weeks in the Conquered City: A Diary by Marta Hillers

5.0

There's not much history written by the losers, let alone ordinary civilians and women. This diary written about the fall of Berlin is horrendous but also a look at what strategies people will put in place to survive.
It's also worth looking at the story behind this diary and how the author was shamed into not publishing it again in German until after her death.
