MY FATHER’S COUNTRY(ISBN=) 英文原版

　　In this gripping memoir, the daughter of a man who conspired
to assassinate Hitler tells the story of three generations of her
family and offers unparalleled insight into the German experience
in the last century.
　　On August 15, 1944, Major Hans Georg Klamroth was tried for
treason for his part in the July Plot to kill Hitler. Eleven days
later, he was executed. His youngest daughter, Wibke Bruhns, was
six years old. Decades later, watching a documentary about the
events of July 20, she saw images of her father in court suddenly
appear on-screen. “I stare at this man with the empty face. I don’t
know him. But I can see myself in him.” How could her family
succumb to Nazi sympathies? And what made her father finally
renounce Hitler?

　　Wibke Bruhns was born in 1938 in Halberstadt. She has worked
as a journalist in both TV and print and as a TV presenter and news
reader. She worked as a correspondent for Stern magazine in the
United States and Israel and headed the culture section at one of
Germany’s largest television stations, ORB. She has two grown
daughters and now lives and works as a freelance writer in
Berlin.
