Trying to read more contemporary lit
The writing is pretty good and I like the ideas presented so far.
Also reading The People in the Trees by Hanya Yanagihara and it's pretty bad. The writing is dog shit a lot of the time but I'm sticking with it because the story seems slightly interesting.

Shittiest book in recent history

Just hyped because "zomg Germans make fun of Hitler", even though Germany has done a ton of that before (Moers' Hitler comics, the movie Mein Führer etc.)
>>
>>7635351
It's an interesting book, but it could've been so much better if Speer had been willing to be honest about his own involvement in things

It's insane to believe that the Minister of Armaments, the man who described himself as Hitler's only friend, wouldn't know about the Holocaust
>>
>>7635493
Hate to say it but I'm redpilled and have to tell you the truth. The Holocaust did not happen like liberal media wants you to believe

Trust me on this, I have a shitload of infographics to back it up
>>
>>7635521
I can't tell if this is high quality bait or not

And Speer admitted in a private letter in 1971 that he did know about the Holocaust while it was happening
