«Los diarios de Berlín (1940-1945)» is the historical diary of Marie «Missie» Vassiltchikov, published by Acantilado in paperback (512 pages, in Spanish).
After fleeing Russia with her family in 1919, the young aristocrat Marie «Missie» Vassiltchikov finds herself trapped in Berlin when the Second World War breaks out. Her personal notes, written between 1940 and 1945, recount her work at the Foreign Ministry of the Third Reich and her contact with circles opposed to Nazism, some of whose members took part in the failed assassination attempt on Hitler. The diary offers a close-up account of life in the German capital during the conflict and of the decline of Old Europe.
The work belongs to the El Acantilado collection (number 93) and was first published in 1985.
Recommended for readers interested in historical testimonies, the Second World War and the German resistance to Nazism from a personal perspective.
