Holospeak


The Blurb: Written by Helen Berr, the daughter of a wealthy French Jew. According to Der Spiegel “It has been described as a publishing sensation. Helene Berr was a young French student murdered in a Nazi concentration camp....” [¶] ...” Helene died of typhus at Bergen-Belsen in April 1945 just a few days before the camp was liberated.”

The Huh? Since when the fuck dying of disease = being murdered? Well Der Spiegel could care less, lurid tales from the Nazi past is all they care about. The rag is little more than an historical crime blotter.
