Özet

It is sometimes difficult to remember that in war there are innocents on all sides who suffer. German citizens who had no connection to the atrocities committed by their countrymen nonetheless endured great hardships because of them.

In The Inner War, author Gerda Hartwich Robinson narrates her story as a German survivor of World War II. She tells how her life's journey included hunger, fear, neglect, and physical and emotional abuse and how she carried these injustices in her mind and body for many years, leading to debilitating back pain, headaches, panic attacks, depression, and feelings of inadequacy. In this touching memoir, Robinson shows that the tragedies of war don't end when the last bomb is dropped or the last prisoner freed; they continue in subtle but devastating ways.

Like many German citizens during and after the war, Robinson was simply trying to survive a terrifying situation she had nothing to do with. She describes how her spirit was devastated by hopelessness and how she entertained thoughts of suicide. The Inner War shares lessons she learned at a chronic pain rehabilitation center that allowed her to start on a path to peace and love.

really interesting perspective told from a German child and learning how they grew up in such times. I did feel that the story was very memoir focused with the author reciting friends names, acquaintances etc. which detracted slightly from her powerful story and how she overcame the grief.

Interesting perspective on war and growing up through this

This was a subject I had not truly thought about until listening to these experiences from this poor little girl living in Germany during the second world war. Beautifully written with lots of messages there for us all to learn from.

Insightful from one who truly knows
