Download or read book Billy and The Joels - The American rock star and his German family story (eBook) written by Steffen Radlmaier and published by ars vivendi Verlag. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1920s, Karl Amson Joel and his wife Meta founded a mail-order linen goods company in Nuremberg, Germany. The business flourished, and it could have turned out to be a picture-book success story, were it not for the coming to power of Adolf Hitler. To escape the Nazis, the Jewish couple and their son Helmut fled first to Berlin and then on to Switzerland. The linen goods company was snapped up by department-store 'king' Josef Neckermann at basement price. A further hazardous journey then took the Joels to Cuba and, finally, to New York. Helmut married a young girl from Brooklyn and, in 1949, she gave birth to their son William Martin, known as 'Billy'. When the marriage fell apart, Helmut returned alone to Germany, re-married and had a second son, Alexander, now an internationally sought-after conductor. Billy Joel is one of the most successful solo artists in the world of international pop music, having sold over 100 million albums. His daughter Alexa Ray has also carved out a career for herself in music. In order to write this extensive biography, Steffen Radlmaier not only researched archives and analyzed specialist literature and interviews, over a period of many years he also conducted personal interviews with numerous family members, acquaintances and contemporary witnesses. He visited Billy Joel and his daughter in New York in the autumn of 2008.

Book excerpt: A German Family covers a week in the life of a mother and her two teenage children in Berlin in late 1944. The city is undergoing nightly bombing. One of the children, Hans, a Hitler Youth, is eager to be sent to the Eastern Front to help stop the advance of the Russian "hordes." The other, Heike, thirteen, has just begun to learn about sex and is unsure of how to deal with what she thinks lies in store for her. Overseeing the family is Trudi, their mother, engaged in a daily struggle to keep her children fed and relatively sane, while at the same time conducting an affair with a neighbor who may or may not be Jewish. The week covered by the novel will determine the fate of these three people, and to some degree, of Germany as a whole.

Download or read book The Himmler Brothers written by Katrin Himmler and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2012-05-31 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katrin Himmler’s cool but meticulous examination of the Himmler story reveals – in all its dark complexity – the gulf between the ‘normality’ of bourgeois family life and the horrors perpetrated by one member. This riveting family memoir provides essential new information on the private life and background of one of the twentieth- century’s most notorious killers – not a lone evil executioner, but a middle-class family man, loved and fully supported by his respectable German family. It also offers a unique account of one women’s courageous attempt to deal with her chilling inheritance. ‘It is part of the creeping discomfort in reading her book to realise the incredibly ordinary middle-class background of these three sons of a rather pompous provincial headmaster and to see how, right until the end, he was almost able to convince himself it hadn't happened like it had' Sunday Times ‘You get a vivid sense of a particular kind of German conservatism - Roman Catholic, monarchist - and of how, weirdly, it found an outlet in the upstart, part-pagan thuggery of Nazism’ Independent ‘One can only admire her bravery . . . In a way, Katrin Himmler's book is not a story about the past, but one about the present. The most interesting details are the ones she gives of her own quest’ Daily Telegraph
