"This book examines the phenomenon of Germanic volunteers to the SS through the stories of the neutral volunteers to the Waffen-SS leadership corps...those who became officers or assumed other positions of responsibility...as well as the SS institutions they worked for. Though many of the hundreds of thousands of non-Germans who fought for the Nazi regime were likely coerced into joining by the occupying Germans, this book focuses on volunteers from countries outside of Germany's control...Switzerland, Sweden, and Denmark...thereby eliminating coercion or propaganda as explanations for their decisions to volunteer. Unlike non-Germanic volunteers who were given a lower status within the Waffen-SS or came under the command of the German army, volunteers from the Germanic countries were fully integrated into the Waffen-SS and were simultaneously members of the elite SS umbrella organization

Der Schweizer Autor, Sohn einer schweizerischen Mutter und eines aus Trinidad stammenden Vaters indischer Herkunft, ist schon in seinen früheren Romanen dem Thema der Fremdheit und der Spurensuche nach der eigenen Identität nachgegangen. In seinem autobiografischen Roman "Meine Väter" (BA 5/03) macht er sich auf die Reise zu seinem ihm fremden leiblichen Vater und spürt dessen Lebensgeschichte in seiner Heimat Trinidad nach. So ist auch in diesem neuesten Buch das Fremde in seiner eigenen Biografie - durch seine bi-kulturelle Herkunft - aber ebenso in der Welterfahrung bei Reisen oder in literarisch-philosophischen Erkundungen sein Thema, dem er immer verbunden mit erzählerischen Rückblicken in die eigene Kindheit nachspürt. Interessant seine Einsicht, dass es gilt, das Fremde in sich selbst und in der Welt auszuhalten statt immer zu verstehen bzw. zu integrieren. Teile dieses poetisch-philosophischen Textes sind bereits in Zeitungen u.a. Publikationen veröffentlicht worden. Entstanden ist eine Art persönlicher Essay, nachdenkens- und lesenswert für literarisch Interessierte
