Crowds parted to let him pass; a table was permanently reserved for him at Le Lapin Blanc, Lyon s raciest nightclub; and pretty young women slipped him notes inscribed with their phone numbers. But his glory days represented only a thin slice of his life. What prepared him for his role as the so-called Butcher of Lyon, and what became of him after the war ended? In an attempt to answer these and other questions, this collection of nine wide-ranging and skillfully written stories presents Barbie in a variety of guises, from that of a vulnerable young boy, to a preening young man on the make, to an enfeebled old man forced to confront his crimes forty years after the fact.Though wars and their excesses flare up and die down, evil is always with us, promising a god-like dominion over others that seduces those who are weakest. This book is a reminder of that.</p>...(*_*)9781960018281_<p>This collection of nine wide-ranging and skillfully written stories shows Gestapo chief Klaus Barbie as a vulnerable young boy, a preening young man on the make, and, finally, an enfeebled old man forced to confront his crimes.</p>...9781960018281_Running Wild Presslibro_electonico_9781960018281_9781960018281Roberta HartlingInglésMéxico2024-09-09T00:00:00+00:00https://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/ajohnston@ipgbook.com-epub-548f5690-afa2-41c6-87fd-2b4f4260d59c.epub2024-09-09T00:00:00+00:00Running Wild Press
