Unveiling the Intimate Details
Through meticulous research and exclusive access to never-before-seen documents and photographs, Stratigakos takes us on an unprecedented journey into the Berghof, Hitler's mountain retreat in the Bavarian Alps. It is here that we witness the intricate workings of his household, the dynamics among his inner circle, and his personal obsessions.
The book explores Hitler's daily routines, from the mundane to the shocking. We learn about his eating habits, his love of classical opera, and his bizarre sleep rituals. We encounter his loyal entourage, including Eva Braun, his mistress, and Heinrich Himmler, the head of the SS.
Exploring Hitler's Psychological Landscape
Beyond the superficial details, "Hitler at Home" delves deep into Hitler's psychological makeup. Stratigakos uncovers the traumas and insecurities that shaped his childhood and adolescence. We witness his transformation from a lonely and awkward young man to a charismatic and ruthless dictator.

The Berghof: A Stage for Power and Intrigue
The Berghof was more than just a residence; it was a central hub of Nazi power and intrigue. Stratigakos paints a vivid picture of the lavish parties, the secret meetings, and the ruthless machinations that took place within its walls.
