Traitors, but also I feel bad for them. I’m curious if there was ever any followup specifically into their lives given what we know of how East Germans were treated by the West.
Red Hangover by Kristen Ghodsee is a good read for a broader view of how things turned out. It’s kind of funny because you can kind of see her radicalize a bit in her writings as she’s realizing just how fascist of a turn East Europe is taking. Also, she’s a fangirl for Alexandra Kollontai which, last I checked, made her majorly Anti-Stalin.
