1966SUGAR 1966 294 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: SEGNI DEL TEMPO ALLA COPERTINA, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. SEBBENE NON INTEGRA, ANCORA PRESENTE LA FASCETTA PUBBLICITARIA EDITORIALE CHIUSA, COME DA FOTO Il bombardamento di Londra visto da Virginia Woolf, le prime bombe atomiche su Nagasaki e Hiroshima, le ultime parole di Stefan Zweig prima del suicidio, una lettera di Simone Weil a Maurice Schumann, l'8 settembre descritto da Giaime Pmtor, i rischiosissimi e avventurosi voli dl Samt-Exupéry in Africa, la "scoPerta" dei campi di sterminio da parte dei generali americani in Germania i diari di Kaj Munk e Julius Fucik assassinati dai nazisti, gli ultimi appunti musicali di Anton Webern ucciso "per sbaglio" nel 1945. Oltre a queste celebri testimonianze, altre raccolte in questo volume portano firme poco conosciute o sono addirittura anonime testimonianze individuali di combattenti e di borghesi, di intellettuali e di proletari ben diverse le une dalle altre, anche perché provengono da differenti paesi. Si fondono tuttavia insieme per ricostruire davanti ai nostri occhi, in una cronaca appassionata e intima, disperata e generosa, gli avvenimenti che vanno dal 1939 al 1945. Questi documenti fanno parte della storia e ci aiutano a capirla e a ricordarla, ad analizzarla e a esorcizzarla. Proprio su questa memoria della tragedia e su questo rifiuto dell atrocità è basata l'unica possibilità di pace.
