Binet's style fuses it all together: a neutral, journalistic honesty sustained with a fiction writer's zeal and story-telling instincts. It's one of the best historical novels I've ever come across.' Bret Easton Ellis. Two men have been enlisted to kill the head of the Gestapo. This is Operation Anthropoid, Prague, 1942: two Czechoslovakian parachutists sent on a daring mission by London to assassinate Reinhard Heydrich, chief of the Nazi secret services, 'the hangman of Prague', 'the blond beast', 'the most dangerous man in the Third Reich'. His boss is Heinrich Himmler but everyone in the SS says 'Himmler's brain is called Heydrich', which in German spells HHhH. All the characters in HHhH are real. All the events depicted are true. But alongside the nerve-shredding preparations for the attack runs another story: when you are a novelist writing about real people, how do you resist the temptation to make things up? HHhH is a panorama of the Third Reich told through the life of one outstandingly brutal man, a story of unbearable heroism and loyalty, revenge and betrayal.It is improbably entertaining and electrifyingly modern, a moving and shattering work of fiction.

"HHhH: "Himmlers Hirn heisst Heydrich," or "Himmler's brain is called Heydrich." The most dangerous man in Hitler's cabinet, Reinhard Heydrich was known as the "Butcher of Prague." He was feared by all and loathed by most. With his cold Aryan features and implacable cruelty, Heydrich seemed indestructible--until two men, a Slovak and a Czech recruited by the British secret service, killed him in broad daylight on a bustling street in Prague, and thus changed the course of History. Who were these men, arguably two of the most discreet heroes of the twentieth century? In Laurent Binet's captivating debut novel, we follow Jozef Gab?ik and Jan Kubis from their dramatic escape of Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia to England; from their recruitment to their harrowing parachute drop into a war zone, from their stealth attack on Heydrich's car to their own brutal death in the basement of a Prague church. A seemingly effortlessly blend of historical truth, personal memory, and Laurent Binet's remarkable imagination, "HHhH"--an international bestseller and winner of the prestigious Prix Goncourt du Premier Roman--is a work at once thrilling and intellectually engrossing, a fast-paced novel of the Second World War that is also a profound meditation on the nature of writing and the debt we owe to history.

Buchbeschreibung: Einaudi, 2011. Buchzustand: New. La storia che viene qui raccontata è una storia nota. Apparentemente nota: l'attentato a Heydrich del 27 maggio 1942. In realtà, la sensazione è quella di leggerla per la prima volta, in tutta la sua trascinante forza narrativa e nella sua drammatica verità documentaria. Il primo protagonista della storia è Reynard Heydrich, il braccio destro di Himmler, l'ideatore, nel gennaio del 1942 della Soluzione finale, lo sterminio sistematico degli ebrei. Heydrich è gerarca più spietato del Terzo Reich, il macellaio di Praga, la bestia bionda. L'uomo dall'infanzia problematica, segnata da due traumi: da una parte la voce stridula e l'aspetto effeminato che gli valsero l'appellativo di capra, e dall'altra il mistero di una presenza ebraica all'interno della sua famiglia. Ben presto il giovane Heydrich comincia a trasformarsi nell'incarnazione del ariano, ammirato da Hitler per la ferocia e per l'efficacia delle sue azioni. In rapida ascesa politica Heydrich arriva al vertice del Protettorato di Boemia e Moravia, dove si dedica allo sterminio degli ebrei e di tutti gli oppositori al regime. Ma da Londra, città in cui il governo ceco è stato esiliato, parte contro di lui l'offensiva della Resistenza che culminerà nell'Operazione Antropoide. I protagonisti indiscussi diventano allora due: i paracadutisti Jozef Gabcik e Jan Kubis, uno slovacco e l'altro ceco, ai quali viene affidato l'incarico dell'esecuzione.

Buchbeschreibung: SEIX BARRAL, 2012. RUSTICA. Tras este misterioso titulo se esconde la frase en aleman Himmlers Hirn heisst Heydrich el cerebro de Himmler se llama Heydrich . Esto es lo que se decia en las SS de Reinhard Heydrich jefe de la Gestapo considerado el hombre mas peligroso del Tercer Reich y una de las figuras mas enigmaticas del nazismo. En 1942 dos miembros de la Resistencia aterrizan en paracaidas en Praga para asesinarlo. Luego del atentado delatados por un traidor los acorralan setecientos hombres de las SS y se suicidan. Laurent Binet narra uno de los episodios mas conmovedores de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y posiblemente de la historia de la humanidad. Pero tras la narracion de esta hazana empieza otra lucha: la que enfrenta la ficcion con la realidad. HHhH es el relato de la desesperada busqueda de una forma precisa de contar la historia. Para ello Binet lleva al lector hasta la tormenta de la Segunda Guerra Mundial a Berlin Londres y Paris a la Praga actual y en un giro literario de una fuerza inaudita traslada el regimen nazi hasta 2010. Galardonado con el premio Goncourt de primera novela HHhH ha sido reconocido como uno de los mas impresionantes debuts de los ultimos anos: la revista Lire y RTL han concedido a Binet sus premios al autor-revelacion y la novela se publicara en veinte paises. Especie de thriller en forma de tragedia clasica y magistral de principio a fin constituye una proeza historica y narrativa. 392 pp. Buchnummer des Verkäufers 196792
