‘A truly major work, both deeply moving and incredibly powerful. A masterpiece of research, structure and writing . . . unforgettable’ – Sir Antony Beevor, bestselling author of Stalingrad

'Painful, profound, prescient . . . a magisterial work' – Sonia Purnell, internationally bestselling author of Kingmaker and A Woman of No Importance

This audiobook also features the voice of the author, Douglas Smith, reading the Notes on Terminology and Sources, as well as his Acknowledgments.

In 1938, Vienna was the second largest Jewish city in Europe, home to nearly 200,000 Jewish people.

By 1946, only a few thousand had survived.

In this heart-wrenching story of loss, fear, courage and hope, acclaimed historian Douglas Smith chronicles the Nazi destruction of Jewish Vienna. Drawing on hundreds of long-forgotten voices, from Jews to Nazis to Gentile collaborators and bystanders, The City Without Jews centres on one remarkable person: Mignon Langnas.

Watching as nearly every Jew she knew was expropriated, forced to migrate, or deported to the killing fields and death camps in the East, Mignon vividly recorded her world in diaries and letters, creating an indispensably detailed and poignant account of life under Nazi rule. What emerges from the wreckage of a city bent on Jewish eradication is a gripping and fundamentally human history like no other – one of betrayal, sacrifice, impossible choices and survivor guilt.

批評家のレビュー

This is a truly major work, both deeply moving and incredibly powerful. It is a masterpiece of research, structure and writing. Never before has anyone so brilliantly integrated the history of the Nazi onslaught on the Jews of Vienna – a more vicious explosion even than in Germany – with the intimate experience of their victims. It is an unforgettable story of greed, betrayal and hypocrisy, self-sacrifice, impossible moral choices and survivor guilt (Antony Beevor, author of Stalingrad)
An important and deeply researched book. By focusing in depth on one key city, it substantially adds to our understanding of how the Nazi system of genocide and plunder operated (Adam LeBor)
A vivid account of persecution, betrayal and genocide . . . Smith has brought [this story] alive with forensic detail and a truly gripping narrative (Luka Ivan Jukic)
Scholarly and vivid . . . fascinating . . . Smith is unsparing in the clarity with which he confronts these horrific events (Caroline Moorehead)
An important book by one of our best historians (Simon Sebag Montefiore)
Shocking and profoundly moving, this meticulously researched history of the Nazi destruction of Jewish Vienna is a fierce and important work (Clare Mulley, Women’s Prize shortlisted author of Agent Zo)
Painful, profound, prescient. Douglas Smith's The City Without Jews is a magisterial work but also an intimate one and all the more powerful for it (Sonia Purnell, author of Kingmaker and A Woman of No Importance)
Douglas Smith once again demonstrates his impressive historical scope and meticulous scholarship . . . this unflinching narrative is an important contribution to the canon of Holocaust history (Helen Rappaport, author of The Romanov Sisters)
Powerful and well-researched . . . Reading the stories of Vienna’s Jews in their own voices leaves an indelible scar . . . A magnificent history of Vienna’s antisemitic past
The City Without Jews exposes the descent of one of the world's most beautiful cities into hell, through the lives of one family torn apart in the process. Moving gracefully between the grand and the intimate scale, this beautifully written book will change the way you see Vienna forever (Rebecca Clifford, author of Survivors)
In Douglas Smith’s extraordinary work, the city of Vienna becomes a character for which we feel and grieve. Superbly researched and written, this book unflinchingly and beautifully documents the fate of Viennese Jews during the Nazi years. It is moving, compelling and important reading. A tour-de-force (Ariana Neumann, author of When Time Stopped)
