Long Shadows: Truth, Lies And History

by Erna Paris

Knopf Canada | October 9, 2001 | Trade Paperback

Award-winning writer Erna Paris chronicles her journey over four continents into the shifting terrain of war and memory. Combining gripping storytelling with insight and sharp observation, Paris takes us to places of reckoning - be they courtrooms or concentration camps - and finds hope in the way ordinary people grapple with the conflicts of our time: the aftermath of World War II in Japan, slavery in the U.S., apartheid in South Africa, and the legacy of the Holocaust in Germany and France.

Stunning work...

I read this book just after reading Alexander and Margarete Mitscherlich's book, The Inability to Mourn: Principles
of Collective Behavior and Randall L. Bytwerk's Julius Streichen : The Man Who Persuaded a Nation to Hate Jews . Long Shadows is much more eloquent than the other two but no less revealing about the difficulties that all nations have in facing the truth in the aftermath of such war-inspired atrocities. I recommend it to anyone who cares about history as a record of truth.
