Representaion In Favor Of Books Max

"19 avril 1936. Bientôt minuit. Je vais naître dans une minute exactement. Je vais voir le jour le 20 avril. Date anniversaire de notre Fürher. Je serai ainsi béni des dieux germaniques et l'on verra en moi le premier-né de la race suprême. La race aryenne. Celle qui désormais régnera en maître sur le monde. Je suis l'enfant du futur. Conçu sans amour. Sans Dieu. Sans loi. Sans rien d'autre que la force et la rage. Je mordrai au lieu de téter. Je hurlerai au lieu de gazouiller. Je haïrai au lieu d'aimer. Heil Hitler!"

Max est le prototype parfait du programme "Lebensborn" initié par Himmler. Des femmes sélectionnées par les nazis mettent au monde de purs représentants de la race aryenne, jeunesse idéale destinée à régénérer l'Allemagne puis l'Europe occupée par le Reich.
Une fable historique fascinante et dérangeante qu'on ne peut pas lâcher. Une lecture choc, remarquablement documentée, dont on ne sort pas indemne

Evaluate Containing Books Max

Hits all my issues re fictional nazis in novels. No thanks.

I received this book for free from the publisher Walker Books in return for a review.Max is the perfect Nazi baby. Born as part of the eugenics programme his blond hair, blue eyes and entire body are perfect. But raised with Nazi ideology and living through the brutality of war, how long can Max cope before reality questions his own beliefs?'Max' is such an amazing and powerful novel it had me gripped, shocked, horrified and even had me crying! Told in the first person perspective throughout,

I just couldn't get into this. I think the narrating baby is what I can't deal with--he's obnoxious and, in case you missed it, he's a baby. I don't understand babies when they can't talk, let alone this one that only talks about Hitler and breastfeeding. I'm sure it's good, as it won a ton of awards, but it was just too dry for me and really weird.

The narrative structure of this novel did not work for me - right from the beginning with the point of view as Max a foetus it was unbelievable. Perhaps the originality was lost in translation but I found this to be very awkward and unbelievable. An interesting premise about shocking events in history but I could barely finish it.

This is a book that NEEDS to be in every library. I knew about the Hitler Youth movement in Germany during World War II, but I had no idea about the horror of the Lebensborn ("Fountain of Life") programs. In an attempt to breed the perfect Aryan soldier, the Nazis would match S.S. Officers only with the bluest of eyes and blondest of hair with women of the same nordic qualities. If the baby didn't match with predetermined standards, they were "purified"...you guessed it, killed. Not for the

Originally posted at: https://iliveforreading.blogspot.com/...I had to steel myself before I started reading Max. I love young adult fiction that concerns history, but with an Amnesty International endorsement, this one was bound to be heavy. What. A. Book. This was probably THE most powerful book I've read this year. While I don't cry when it comes to books, this one had me stunned and shocked the whole way through.World War II isn't an easy subject to read about, but I've read several young

Lol, this ones ok. Comes from the point of view of this fetus of a white boy and his perspective of growing up as the "perfect" aryan specimen for the Nazis (blond hair, blue eyes, white skin). Then, he meets this jew and quickly becomes his friend, even though he grew up knowing that Jews were the race/species that needed to be "discriminated". SO if you are interested in learning some Nazi/Germany/World War ii history, maybe you should give this book a shot.
