Traudl Junge (then Humps) was 22 years old and dreamt of a career as a ballerina, until the 'opportunity of her life' beckoned. Adolf Hitler appointed this young secretary to his private office and from 1942 until his death she was at his side in the bunker, typing his correspondence, his speeches and even his last private and political will and testament. 'I was 22 and I didn't know anything about politics, it didn't interest me, ' she claims. It was apparently only after the war that this young woman began to realise what had happened and the horrible reality began to dawn on her. She was wracked with guilt for 'liking the greatest criminal ever to have lived.' She'd found him a 'pleasant older man and a good employer'. Her journal, written in 1947, recounts her mostly mundane time typing, making tea, until the coldness of the bunker, the building sense of despair and doom as the war progressed. The journal is topped and tailed with a preface and an afterword, co-written by Melissa Muller, giving the background to the story, the rest of Traudl's unhappy life and her feelings of guilt over her naive actions."… (plus d'informations)
Traudl Junge var blott 22 år och drömde om en karriär som dansös då hon fick sitt livs chans: att bli Adolf Hitlers sekreterare. Från 1942 till Hitlers självmord i bunkern i april 1945 fanns hon alltid vid hans sida. Det var Traudl Junge som renskrev Hitlers tal och brev - till och med hans testamente.
Short but great account of seeing the final days of Hitler and the fall of Berlin by one of Hitler's young secretaries. She also has explains herself at the end of the movie, Downfall, which I've seen a few times. That movie is very well done also. ( )
Detailed memories from an interesting view...that of hitlers last secretary Traudl Junge. Sorry, not sorry that I am not as enamored of her as other readers. Why? I do not believe she was as naïve as she would like us to believe. ( )
En gennemgang af Hitlers sekretærs opvækst, ansættelse hos Hitler og den senere selvbebrejdelse. Første halvdel er ret opremsende og kedelig, mens sidste hslvdel er mere oplysende og spændende. Også den senere infsigt er god læsning ( )
A fascinating memoir from someone who spent a lot of time with Hitler, right up to the end. The everyday details are mesmerizing. It seems the writer existed on a slightly detached plane - maybe a defense mechanism, maybe just innocence or ignorance. It is only long afterwards that anything approaching guilt affects the writer. It is difficult to know how to judge someone in this position. What would most us have done? ( )
Until the Final Hour is a remarkable historical document [...] But more than this, it is another painful reminder of how it is possible for a person - or even an entire nation - to sleepwalk slowly into sin. You put the book down and your skin prickles with the knowledge that, out in the world, there will always be invisible lines to be crossed. Mistakes: how easily they are made.
