A review by jasonhrleereads
Postwar by Tony Judt
5.0
A powerful reminder of why history is so integral. Judt demonstrates that how we remember our past constitutes the present we make for ourselves.
If we are ever to forget the brutality of racism, antisemitism and oppression of the past then we damn ourselves to a present in which they once again advance.
Europe which has found such miraculous peace can only keep it if it keeps its values and to do that it must remember.
