RaveForewardA singular window into the horror of life in Nazi Germany ... A haunting approach to the question of what totalitarianism feels to those who live under it ... Far from traditional nightmares or dreams of violence, they capture the absurd reality the Nazi regime created ... More than a collection of dark realities ... The dreams are organized into evocative thematic sections covering conformity and acquiescence, privacy, and belonging ... Erudite ... An astonishing historical analysis, The Third Reich of Dreams speaks to the dreams of those who lived under Hitler to capture the twisted realities of Nazi rule.

PositiveLibrary JournalThis book combines deep research into the arcane workings of the asylum process with personal observations about religion, literature, cinema, and family life ... [Nayeri\'s] greatest achievement is in filtering everything through her distinct voice, articulating her doubts, worries, compassion, anger, frustrations, and loves with bracing honesty. Few books are as erudite, comprehensive, and intensely personal all at once.
