In the Garden of Beasts

A particularly disturbing but fascinating book. The sense of unreality pervaded the story, as I could hardly imagine it to be true. A powerful work of nonfiction which brings new perspective on any previous “understanding” of how events leading up to the Second World War passed.

Excellent.
Interesting and engaging and fun to read as well as full of useful information. A little too much is written about the personal life of Dodd's daughter, which in my opinions spills beyond relevant anecdotes into shallow gossip.
But other than this minor flaw, thoroughly enjoyable.

Great book that is well written. At times it seems a little random, as if there weren't enough details known. But still a great (and scary) read.
