19420001290MUNICH MUNCHEN GERMANY GDR. Very Good. 1942. On offer is the remarkable original World War II manuscript German home front diary handwritten by renowned European Opera star Augusta Gusty Rainhoff Marie Watzlawik later then Hart. The 6 ¼ x 7 ¼"diary written in German is dated 1942 through 1945 with over 67 ½ pp handwritten entries pages Gusty provides a riveting and intimate narrative. Culture and love fate and practicality with the backdrop of war collide as the writer has to deal with the realities of war the tangled web of her personal life as well as concern about her career if she should become pregnant. Intimate and a rather unique perspective on the war from within Germany makes for what collectors and researchers of the era will agree is quite rare coming from the heart of Hitler's favored city of Munich the city known as Hauptstadt der Bewegung "Capital of the Movement". The diary begins with her personal conflict. Here are some snippets: "May 14 This book shall capture my experiences after my parting with Clemmens. I'll be alone I hope.we want to be good friends and help each other in dismal Munich. May 15 Today is a new beginning in my life. I said my farewells with Clemmens and it's serious he's being posted to Africa. These two last days with Clemmens were not so nice they perhaps made me unhappy. in spite of the fact that he said he loves me. but I know and feel it that I love him much more. It is after all a farewell for ever or so I suspect and it's probably for the best. I pray for him that he remains healthy . I tell . I am engaged that my husband is. This is the role I will play now. I'm much more enthusiastic I will write him letters because in hot Africa he will need me. God grant that I don't have a child I don't want one. I want to be free for the Theatre. I was too happy now I have to pay. That's how life is. June 3. Rehearsals.I sing Elixsir. Mr leads . he was nice and very courteous.

August 8 Soon I will be 27 years old. I can't give up my career. What's the matter with Clemmens I love him. August 12. A letter came back. Lord God what is the matter I love him. yes I don't know anything it's enough to make me crazy. What is my life without Clemmens There can't be anything I can't stand it.
