The force and clarity with which Littell renders the physical realities of war and mass murder are simply astounding. . . . The Kindly Ones is unmistakably the work of a profoundly gifted writer., An extraordinarily powerful novel.... Above all, it is a sophisticated exploration of issues of morality, evil and luck...

The Kindly Ones is unmistakably the work of a profoundly gifted writer., "The force and clarity with which Littell renders the physical realities of war and mass murder are simply astounding. . . . The Kindly Ones is unmistakably the work of a profoundly gifted writer." -- Time magazine "A vast fictional exploration of banal, everyday evil, as related by a Nazi officer. . . . The closing is a tour de force. But so is the entire book--very long, but with not a wasted word." -- Kirkus Reviews (Starred) "Littell has created a compelling witness to the extraordinary events that punctuated the Third Reich...Littell has assiduously researched the large events he depicts; however, it is his own creative imagination that gives substance to the narrator's broodings on his involvement in horrific deeds." -- Booklist (starred review) "A near-masterpiece of historical fiction." -- Lisa Ko, author of The Leavers "An alternately fascinating and impressively researched novel. . . . Its feverish voice is weirdly mesmerizing, the scope awesome." -- Newark Star Ledger "Language that can be at once cold and beautiful . . . at times uncomfortably mesmerizing. Like it or not, it's the sort of rare book that leads to rereading, study, argument and, perhaps, canonization." -- Austin American-Statesman "These detailed descriptions of how the extermination of Jews was systematically implemented on an institutional level seem a much-needed dose of reality when contrasted with the fairy-tale quality of recent Holocaust fiction. . . . Juxtaposed with well-researched realism are internal flights of fancy with feverish dream passages." -- The Jewish Daily Forward "A world-class masterpiece of astonishing brutality, originality, and force." -- The Daily Beast "A brilliant Holocaust novel...A world-class masterpiece of astonishing brutality, originality, and force...I read it without pausing for breath, so powerful and terrifying was its portrayal of Nazi Germany, and of the Holocaust....Littell is a genius, both as a historian, and as a novelist...relentlessly fascinating, ambitious beyond scope." -- Michael Korda, The Daily Beast "If you're like me, you will read this book to the end with a mixture of fascination and disgust toward its narrator, and admiration for the author who created him. . . . If Littell wanted to leave the reader with unresolved questions that will continue to haunt us, he has succeeded brilliantly." -- Boston Sunday Globe "A great work of literary fiction, to which readers and scholars will turn for decades to come." -- Antony Beevor, The Times (London) "The meticulously realistic main plot of The Kindly Ones is brilliantly organized and written..." -- BookForum "Unquestionably brilliant...Littell is a gifted writer and what he achieves...is unparalleled...The novel [is] scrupulous in its period details and...generous in its scope" -- The Nation "An extraordinarily powerful novel....

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

Relevanteste Rezensionen

  • No regrets for his role in WWII challenges readers to "wear his shoes."

    Littell as the author takes the reader on a semi-fictional journey through Germany during the war. It begins with his personal feelings about his orders and superiors. This serves as the basis for his "more extremist" actions against implementing the "practical hygienic program" of exterminating the Jews. Written to, it seems, for convicing would be right wingers of many justifications for actions he may have participated in or observed, that extremism sometimes is justifiable. This rationale also coincides cloesly with other historical accounts such as Harold Keith Thompson another SS officer stationed in the U.S.
