Hans Fallada's 'Iron Gustav' gives a detailed account from the perspective of a family in Berlin, what happened in Germany from 1914 onwards.
The book was first published in 1938 but the first full edition was published in 1962, with the revised edition published in Penguin Classics in 2014.
Its insights in explaining what happened are simply brilliant.
Worryingly, it may have something to say about our times too.
Some months back Eileen Batterrsby seemed to have been fulsome in her praise of the book. Not at all, it is a brilliant read and not to be missed.
