Bøger af David Kinney

I Djævlens dagbog får man via afslørende og hemmeligholdte optegnelser et skræmmende indblik i tankegangen hos en af Hitlers chefideologer, Alfred Rosenberg, der bl.a. formulerede nogle af de grundlæggende principper bag Det Tredje Riges masseudryddelser. Bogen fortæller samtidig om den spændende jagt på Rosenbergs dagbog, som forsvandt efter Nürnbergprocessen og var væk i næsten trekvart århundrede, indtil den forhenværende FBI-specialagent Robert Wittman kom på sporet af den. Dagbogen dækker perioden fra 1936 til 1944, og den loyale Hitlerrådgiver Rosenberg beretter udførligt om fortrolige møder med Føreren og hans nærmeste, Hermann Göring og Heinrich Himmler. Den indeholder også oplysninger om planerne for et besat Sovjetunionen efter krigen, og den fortæller om Rosenbergs overopsyn med massebeslaglæggelser og katalogisering af kunstværker fra private hjem, biblioteker og museer i hele det besatte Europa. Dagbogen er en førstehånds øjenvidneberetning, der kaster et provokerende og intimt lys over afgørende begivenheder under krigen og over den berygtede nazist, som var med at skabe det filosofiske grundlag for Det Tredje Rige.

Published to rave reviews in hardcover and purchased by DreamWorks in a major film deal, The Big One is a spellbinding and richly atmospheric work of narrative journalism in the tradition of Friday Night Lights. Here is the story of a community—Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts—and a sporting event—the island’s legendary Striped Bass & Bluefish Derby—that is rendered with the same depth, color, and emotional power of the best fiction. Among the characters, we meet: Dick Hathaway, a crotchety legend who once caught a bluefish from a helicopter and was ultimately banned for cheating; Janet Messineo, a recovering alcoholic who says that striped bass saved her life; Buddy Vanderhoop, a boastful Native American charter captain who guides celebrity anglers like Keith Richards and Spike Lee; and Wyatt Jenkinson, a nine-year-old fishing fanatic whose mother is battling brain cancer. At the center of it all is five-time winner Lev Wlodyka, a cagey local whose next fish will spark a storm of controversy and throw the tournament into turmoil.Much more than just a book for fishing enthusiasts, The Big One is an exhilarating story of passion and obsession—and a powerful testament to the dreams that keep us all going.
