"This is not a book I will forget any time soon."

―Story Circle Book Reviews

Moving and provocative, Api's Berlin Diaries offers a personal perspective on the fall of Berlin 1945 and the far-reaching aftershocks of the Third Reich.

After her mother's death, Robinson was thrilled to find her beloved grandfather's war diaries--only to discover that he had been a Nazi.

The award-winning memoir shows Api, a doctor in Berlin, desperately trying to help the wounded in cellars without water or light. He himself was reduced to anxiety and despair, the daily diary his main refuge. As Robinson retraces Api's steps half a century later, she tries to come up with answers to why he joined the Nazi party while also remembering the happiest years of her childhood with him. For readers of today this moving memoir provides a timely reminder that we all need to reckon with our countries' pasts.

About the Author
Robinson, Gabrielle: - In her last four books, Gabrielle Robinson has told stories about people that reveal their personal situation within its historical context. One reason for her fascination with this intersection of the personal and historical stems from her own experience. She was born in Berlin in 1942; her father's fighter plane was shot down over England in 1943; and in 1945, after being bombed out, she and her family fled Berlin--the beginning of a string of migrations that ended in the US.
Gabrielle holds an MA from Columbia University and a PhD from the University of London. She has taught at the University of Illinois, at Indiana University South Bend, and abroad, and she has won a number of local and statewide awards for her writing and community engagement.
