A very factual book about the experiences of German and Austrian Jews interned in the UK early in WW2, who were then shipped off to Canada. The author, himself a member of the group in question, went on to become a successful staff member at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The book is somewhat dry, but is of course extremely accurate in its reporting. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
In the spring of 1940, Eric Koch was a law student in London. By autumn, he was being held behind barbed wire in Quebec. Koch was arrested as an enemy alien by the British government and sent to a prison camp in Canada; but he and hundreds of other "dangerous Nazi" prisoners were really refugees--most of them young and Jewish, themselves fleeing from Hitler. In this book Koch recounts the struggles and joys of his Canadian internment, the relief at being spared the horrors of Nazi-occupied Europe, the bitter irony of being confined as a German enemy. Written with a rare blend of honesty, humour and warmth, Deemed Suspect vividly recreates life in Canada's prison camps during World War Two. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
