The Censorship Files: Latin American Writers and Franco's Spain
In July 2016 I visited the Norway Resistance Museum in Oslo, which told the story of Norway's occupation by the Nazis during World War II. A name that kept popping up throughout the museum was Vikdun Quisling, the Norwegian politician who collaborated with Hitler and seized control of Norway's government during the occupation.
I wanted to know more about the man who put himself in that position. What compelled him? What happened in an occupied country during World War II? And how did his name instantly and internationally become synonymous with "traitor"? Luckily I found this book on him. It's definitely niche history (I had to get one of the few library copies via interlibrary loan), but as a part-Norwegian World War II buff this happened to be right up my alley.
