A thrilling narrative investigation into the National Socialist Underground
(NSU)--a German terror organization that targeted immigrants--and how a
government failed to stop it.
Not long after the Berlin Wall fell, three teenagers became friends in the
East German town of Jena. It was a time of excitement, but also of deep
uncertainty: some four million East Germans found themselves out of work. The
friends began attending far-right rallies with people who called themselves
National Socialists: Nazis. And, like the Hitler-led Nazis before them, they
blamed minorities for their ills. From 2000 to 2011, they embarked on the most
horrific string of white nationalist killings since the Holocaust. Their
target: immigrants.
Look Away follows Beate Zschape and her two accomplices--and sometimes lovers
--as they became radicalized within Germany's far-right scene, escaped into
hiding, and carried out their terrorist spree. Unable to believe that the
brutal killings and bombings were being carried out by white Germans, police
blamed--and sometimes framed--the immigrants instead. Readers meet Gamze
Kubaşık, whose family emigrated from Turkey to seek safety, only to find
themselves in the terrorists' sights. It also tracks Katharina Konig, an
Antifa punk who would help expose the NSU and their accomplices to the world.
A masterwork of reporting and storytelling, Look Away reveals how a group of
young Germans carried out a shocking spree of white supremacist violence, and
how a nation and its government ignored them until it was too late.
