Sobre este título
'Paints eight talented and courageous women back into a picture . . . a masterclass in the restoration of sidelined voices . . . Poignantly told and magnificently written, I found it absolutely unputdownable' Hallie Rubenhold, author of The Five
'Perceptive, meticulous and full of humanity. Expands our understanding of a critical episode of 20th century history' Jonathan Freedland, author of The Escape Artist
'A landmark book, urgent history for our current age' Kate Williams, author of Royal Women
NUREMBERG, 1945. The eyes of a world desperate for truth, hope and justice turn to a courtroom where the leaders of the defeated Nazi regime sit in the dock. In this revelatory history, Natalie Livingstone sheds new light on the trial of the century, through the stories of extraordinary women whose importance has long been ignored.
Anti-fascist journalist Erika Mann - daughter of Germany's most famous writer - came to Nuremberg seeking a reckoning with a Germany she had fled more than a decade before, while Hungarian countess Ingeborg Kálnoky found herself presiding over a guest house in which perpetrators and survivors of the Nazi's worst crimes lived side by side. Russian interpreter Tatiana Stupnikova would be forced to confront terrifying revelations about her country's recent history, and German writer Ursula von Kardorff, reporting on the trials for domestic audiences, found herself torn between the evidence of the courtroom and a selective memory of her work for the Third Reich. Although she was barred from speaking in court on account of her gender, American lawyer Harriet Zetterberg assembled some of the most important prosecution cases, while British painter Laura Knight produced the most famous image of the courtroom. Rebecca West, the celebrated writer, arrived feeling lost and depleted and hoped the proceedings at Nuremberg might somehow shock her back to life. And Auschwitz survivor and French Resistance fighter Marie-Claude Vaillant-Couturier's defiant, devastating testimony laid the foundations for the world's awareness of the Holocaust.
Seen through the eyes of these astonishing women, the story of Nuremberg is a monumental human drama full of hope and romance, terror and conflict. It is the story of a search for truth among misinformation, love among ruins and light in overwhelming darkness. Eighty years after the trials, The Nuremberg Women offers a gripping new account of one of the defining events of the twentieth century.©2026 Natalie Livingstone
Resumo da Crítica
Natalie Livingstone's deeply researched, unfailingly fascinating book gives the many extraordinary women at or near the centre of the Nuremberg trials their proper, important, and often ignored place in history (Salman Rushdie)
Beyond powerful, this deeply researched and moving book is brilliant, unforgettable, vital history. This fascinating, searing book about these women throws open the door onto their essential work and is just gripping. Natalie Livingstone's important scholarship and perceptive, sensitive approach is quite simply revelatory. A landmark book, urgent history for our current age (Kate Williams)
A dramatic and compelling read - with her meticulous research and passionate storytelling, Natalie Livingstone paints eight talented and courageous women back into a picture from which they had been erased. The Nuremberg Women is a masterclass in the restoration of sidelined voices - it proves that yet again, the history we learned is only half the tale. Poignantly told and magnificently written, I found it absolutely unputdownable (HALLIE RUBENHOLD, author of THE FIVE: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper)
Perceptive, meticulous and full of humanity, The Nuremberg Women expands our understanding of a critical episode of 20th century history. By focusing on the women who were written out of the story for so long, this book allows us to see through fresh eyes the reality - and significance - of the Nuremberg trials, whose impact is felt to this very day. (Jonathan Freedland, author of THE ESCAPE ARTIST)
Nurnberg as you've never imagined it or seen it portrayed - the story as revealed through the pivotal role played by eight remarkable women, of diverse nationalities and backgrounds, working at the coalface to bring the worst of the Nazi war criminals to justice. Beautifully and passionately written and wrought in riveting detail, The Nuremberg Women reveals the secret history behind the stories of the high profile men so often associated with the 'trial of the century', delivering a hugely timely corrective to the historical record. A book that I will return to again and again (Damien Lewis, author of THE GREAT TRAIN RAID)
