The author is crafting a new narrative of Danish history covering the years 1921-1939. The book explores a time when Hitler and Stalin were still unknown, culminating in their supporters infiltrating the Danish Parliament. This era was marked by profound crises and grand dreams that led thousands of Danes to engage in extreme actions, including violence and sacrifice for their causes.

 

The narrative unfolds through chapters like "The Margarine Battle in Vejle," "War for Colonialism," "The Danish Mussolini," "Palestine Turmoil in Copenhagen," "Terror of the Unemployed," "Peasant Army against Amalienborg," "Anarchy and Orgasms," "Kanslergade and Tear Gas," "Danish Eugenics," "Negro Jazz and German Refugees," "White Skin, Black Soul," "Enthusiastic in Berlin," "Steadfast in Madrid," and "Vanished in Moscow."

 

The book introduces a myriad of Danes, including well-known figures like Stauning, Karen Blixen, Frits Clausen, Lise Nørgaard, Mærsk, and Thit Jensen, along with international figures like Churchill, Gandhi, Mao, Ho Chi Minh, Josephine Baker, Freud, Einstein, Ford, and Bonnie & Clyde.

 

The author promises a compelling and readable account, emphasizing its complete authenticity. The narrative illustrates how quickly the world can deteriorate and explores how people respond. The project aims to be immersive, taking readers through the tumultuous period by closely examining real events and individuals, allowing them to experience the past as those who lived through it.
