Enjoyed writing about my cultural history approach to #TheLongDeathOfAdolfHitler in the latest issue to Aspects of History... aspectsofhistory.com/product/subs...

Looking forward to reading through this next week. Congratulations on getting the whole draft together!

Your thesis will essentially start & finish with Stonewall...

Why has Hitler taken so long to die? The way that Hitler died is fundamentally unique in the history of 20th century dictators. But does that explain his cultural afterlife?

Very pleased to see that the first media feature pertaining to my forthcoming book is out now with @bigissue.com! Thanks so much for giving me the opportunity to talk about why Hitler has had such a "long death": www.bigissue.com/culture/book...

Reposting to tag @ihrgermanhistory.bsky.social in this time!

Spotted not quite in the wild, but at least on the edge of release! Thank you @yalebooks.bsky.social for inviting me to talk about my new book today & for all your brilliant work during the publishing process. #TheLongDeathOfAdolfHitler is out 10 March! yalebooks.co.uk/book/9780300...

Absolutely! There is not a single picture of Hitler 'in life' within this book and, indeed, I'd say he remains a shadowy figure throughout. It's much more about why his fate has generated this peculiar & enduring public fascination.

You are going to be absolutely brilliant.

Thanks, Bodie!

The amazing & incredibly generous @carolinepennock.bsky.social has beaten me to it! My book launch is coming soon @wienerlibrary.bsky.social. All welcome!

Thank you so much, Caroline!
