Audible Editor Reviews
Narrator Gary Dikeos maintains an objective, journalistic tone throughout
his performance that still manages to sensitively convey the heart-wrenching
suffering of the victims from a lost chapter in Holocaust history. Eighteen
months before the end of World War II, two years before the start of
the Nuremberg trials, three Nazi officers and a Ukrainian collaborator
were convicted of war crimes and hanged in Kharkov. Dikeos' narration
is fluid, keeping the book from sinking into darkness - and many of
the stories here are dark, indeed. Kharkov was the site of the beginning
of the Holocaust, and yet it has been largely ignored in popular Holocaust
history. This gripping audiobook is sure to correct that.
Publisher's Summary
Here is the story of the forgotten Kharkov trials, which sought justice
for the thousands killed in the Ukraine two years prior to the infamous
Nuremberg trial.
When people think of the Holocaust, they think of Auschwitz, of Dachau;
and when they think of justice for this terrible chapter in history,
they think of Nuremberg. Not of Russia or the Ukraine, and certainly
not a town called Kharkov. But in reality, the first war-crimes trial
against the Nazis was in this idyllic, peaceful Ukrainian city, which
is fitting, because it is also where the Holocaust actually began.
Revealing a lost chapter in Holocaust historiography, Judgment Before
scene of the crime, and the discovery of the trial which began the tortuous
process of avenging the murder of his grandparents, great-grandparents,
and tens of thousands of fellow Ukrainians consumed at the dawn of the
Shoah, a moment and crime now largely cloaked in darkness.
Eighteen months before the end of World War II - two full years before
the opening statement by the prosecution at Nuremberg - three Nazi officers
and a Ukrainian collaborator were tried and convicted of war crimes
omission of Ukraine from the popular history of the Holocaust - another
deep irony as most of the first of the six million perished in Ukraine
long before Hitler and his lieutenants even decided on the formalities
of the Final Solution.
