This book vividly evokes for the reader the sound world of a number of European cities in the last year of the Second World War. It allows the reader to ???hear??? elements of the soundscapes of Amsterdam, Dortmund, Lw???w/Lviv, Warsaw and Breslau/Wroclaw that are bound up with the traumatising experiences of violence, threats and death.
