Accordingly, this is not a work of history. But neither is it a<br />

work merely of fiction. It is best described as a case of possibilities,<br />

of speculative history. It is an attempt to make sense, by means of a<br />

radical hypothesis placed within a very broad context, of events<br />

during and after the war that make no sense.<br />

encouraging me to write about these ideas, after he had patiently<br />

listened to me outline them while we were both attending a<br />

book along the way.<br />
