The Dead Man in the Bunker (in Ukrainian)

From a deeply personal perspective as the son of a well-known Nazi, Pollack attempts to uncover not only the circumstances of his father's death but also the life and history of a family passionately devoted to Nazi ideology. He challenges the myth of Austria's "Anschluss" to the Third Reich and reveals how Nazism took root in the provincial bourgeois environment of the Austro-Slovenian borderlands. The book also examines the tensions between Austrians and Slovenes, the clash of their nationalisms in the 1930s, the intergenerational conflict, and the postwar Austrian society’s silence about its past—a silence that allowed pro-Nazi sympathies and fascist tendencies to persist into the 21st century. The novel is grounded in autobiography.
