«Die vergessene Generation» is the history and psychology essay by Sabine Bode, published by Klett-Cotta in paperback (303 pages, in German).
The work addresses the experiences of German children who grew up during the Second World War and the postwar period. Through interviews and analysis, Sabine Bode shows how a generation that suffered bombings, flight and the loss of their parents silenced their memories for decades in order to adapt to the country's reconstruction, and how those experiences shaped their mental health, their relationships and also subsequent generations.
The Kriegskindergeneration mentioned in the subtitle comprises approximately those born between 1930 and 1945. The volume includes an epilogue by Luise Reddemann.
Recommended for readers interested in German historical memory, the psychological impact of war and twentieth-century oral histories.
