After the end of the first World War (1914-1918), Germany and its citizens were to take the blame for the war. A document known as the “Treaty of Versailles” explained the actions and reparations Germany had to take in order to pay for the war damage and casualties.

I found Blake Morrison’s way of storytelling to be unreliable.
