After the Nazis - The Story of Culture in West Germany

Michael H. Kater explores the complex manifestations of the West German cultural scene and its attempts to grapple with the vestiges of Nazism. Ranging from partition to reunification, he shows how the gradual reemergence of democracy was possible only through the efforts of artists to reckon with their past.
