Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Herbert Pundik has written a moving narrative about heroes and ethics, survival and appreciation. Rescued by his fellow Danes and escorted to Sweden (and safety) in 1943, Pundik has reason to say thank you.
Herbert Pundik has written a moving narrative about heroes and ethics, survival and appreciation. Rescued by his fellow Danes and escorted to Sweden (and safety) in 1943, Pundik has reason to say thank you.
In Denmark It Could Not Happen is neither about the banality of evil found in Christopher Browning's Ordinary Men; Police Battalion 101 nor about Europe's disturbing moral torpor, highlighted in so many other Holocaust works. Simply, this is a book about the Danish people, who in contrast to Oscar Schindler and Raoul Wallenberg, were not remarkable individually, but together.
Part memoir and part pure history, Pundik's talent for storytelling and his journalistic compunction for detail puts In Denmark It Could Not Happen in a class of Holocaust literature still capable of expanding our understanding of humanity's tenuous and enigmatic grasp of morality.
