Acerca de esta escucha
Brunhilde Pomsel described herself as an 'apolitical girl' and a 'figure on the margins', but, employed as a stenographer during the Second World War, she worked closely with one of the worst criminals in world history: Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels. She was one of the oldest surviving eyewitnesses to the internal workings of the Nazi power apparatus until her death in 2017.
Her biography, however, not only provides us with extraordinary new insight into a seminal moment of history. Her life, mirroring all the major breaks and continuities of the 20th century, also illustrates how far-right politics, authoritarian regimes and dictatorships can rise and what part political apathy and passivity of the masses can contribute to democracy's erosion.
Compelling and unnerving, The Work I Did forces us to ask how we could have acted in such a situation and leads to the disturbing and enduring question: how reliable is our own moral compass?

Slipping into Evil
If you are hoping to gain insight about Dr. Goebbels from someone uniquely positioned to know, this is not the book you would expect. Rather than bemoan my purchase, I listened to the end, learning something fitting for our time in the process. It details her apathy, as well as our own, to not recognize populist movements with dangerous tendencies.

90% Author's Political Diatribe
Brunhilde Pomsel's banal life's story working under Goellbells was wholly devoid of historical interest but did serve the author's intent as a vehicle to preach her "Diversity is Strength" ultra-leftist progressive worldviews. Like with Marxism, this progressive utopian view believes in the promise of bending human nature to its will. If WWII and other wars throughout history have taught us, this folly only serves to undermine peace...the very thing she wishes to instill.
The narrator did a heck of a good job, though.

Trash
Stick to the story of the main character and stop with the liberal agenda. Both sides are lost and don’t care about people. Pomsas story is great the author is an idiot. Wish I could give it a zero
