«Les derniers jours de Hitler» is the historical essay by Joachim Fest, published by Perrin in 2003 in paperback, in French.
Joachim Fest reconstructs Hitler's confinement in the Berlin bunker during the final days of the Third Reich. He describes his physical deterioration, the atmosphere of prostration and bursts of frenetic activity, and analyses how he maintained the illusion of an impossible victory. He also reviews the contradictory accounts of his death.
