Friedrich Reck might seem an unlikely rebel against Nazism. Not just a conservative but a rock-ribbed reactionary, he played the part of a landed gentleman, deplored democracy, and rejected the modern world outright. To Reck the Nazis were ruthless revolutionaries in Gothic drag, and helpless as he was to counter the spell they had cast on the German people, he felt compelled to record the corruptions of their rule. The result is less a diary than a sequence of stark and astonishing snapshots of life in Germany between 1936 and 1944. We see the Nazis at the peak of power, and the murderous panic with which they respond to approaching defeat; their travesty of traditional folkways in the name of the Volk; and the author’s own missed opportunity to shoot Hitler. This riveting book is not only, as Hannah Arendt proclaimed it, “one of the most important documents of the Hitler period” but a moving testament of a decent man struggling to do the right thing in a depraved world.
作者简介[德]弗里德里希•莱克（Friedrich Reck，1884-1945），出生在东普鲁士的马祖里（Masuria），他的父亲是一位保守派政治家、家境富裕、有土地。最初，他根据父亲的意愿去当兵，但随后离开了军队去学习医学。到了第一次世界大战的时候，他被裁定不再适合从军，不过他此时已经是一位戏剧评论家和游记作家。在此后的数十年里，他成为了慕尼黑社交圈的名人，这要归功于他的几部出名的历史小说和大众娱乐作品，比如《高悬在蒙特卡罗上空的炸弹》这部畅销的喜剧短篇小说，后来还被拍成电影，并且有名角出演。1944年10月，他被捕了，但这仅是第一次；同年的12月，盖世太保又把他拘留起来；1945年1月，他来到了达豪集中营。不久之后，他死在这所集中营里。
