Synopsis
'I want to be a beautiful corpse, I will take poison' Eva Braun, 1945. Eva Braun and Adolf Hitler were together for fourteen years, a relationship that ended only with their marriage and double suicide in Berlin. Braun was obsessed with sport, fashion, photography and films, and seems to have had no real interest in politics. She and Hitler were unmarried and they had no children. And so, at the heart of the Nazi regime there was an odd paradox: the leader of a ferocious dictatorship, himself obsessed with imposing an idea of the 'German family' on an entire nation, who chose to spend much of his adult life with a woman 23 years younger than himself in a way that was unideological and bohemian. Product Information: ISBN: 9780241955925 Format: Paperback Author: Heike B. Gortemaker Publisher: Penguin Pages: 321 Dimensions: 20 x 13 x 2cm.

Review
The first scientifically researched biography to correct the image of the dumb blonde at the side of the mass murderer (Der Spiegel)
An utterly compelling portrayal of the weird hidden life of the dictator ... who, like some black star, destroyed all those he touched. Eva was only one of millions of his victims - but a willing one (Sunday Telegraph)
Easily the best biography of Eva Braun so far written (Daily Beast)
Fascinating ... overturns the established view of her as an apolitical bystander (Nicholas Shakespeare Daily Telegraph Books of the Year)
Braun emerges as bright but vapid, energetic but soulless. As thorough and clear a look of a monster's lover as we are likely to get (Booklist)
Having painstakingly reviewed the archives for references to Eva Braun's relationship with Hitler, Görtemaker presents a portrait of an engaged and engaging young woman, fervently supportive of National Socialism and one of the few members of Hitler's inner circle to never lose his trust or fall out of affection (Publishers Weekly)
