An electrifying novel about the Nazi who reinvented himself, Albert Speer.

"Which is the most seductive, truth or fiction?"

This is the story of Albert Speer - The protege. The 'good Nazi'. The star. The mythmaker.

In 1969, Speer, Hitler's favourite architect and Minister of Armaments and War Production, publishes his memoirs. Rewriting his own past, claiming to have known nothing about the Final Solution, he declares himself 'collectively responsible, but not individually guilty'.

It is one of the greatest lies in history.

Jean-Noël Orengo's electrifying novel, You Are the Führer's Unrequited Love, is the story of a man who saved his skin through the countless fictions he created about himself. A man with a talent for survival, who dazzled those around him with his monuments to power and then, escaping death, reinvented himself as a bestselling author. A man once described as the Führer's unrequited love.

It is a story of power and ambition, self-interest and self-deceit - and what happens in a war over the truth.
