Wikipedia article




'Angel of Oblivion' (, ) is a 2011 autobiographical novel written by bilingual Slovenian-German Austrian writer Maja Haderlap. The story revolves around the life of a Carinthian Slovene peasant family that had been badly struck by the National Socialist regime in World War II. The novel highlights Austria's only militarily organised resistance against National Socialism - the Carinthian minority of Carinthian Slovenes as one of the non-Jewish Holocaust's victims.[http://www.pogledi.si/ljudje/angel-pozabe-je-postal-moja-pripoved Angel pozabe je postal moja pripoved], Pogledi, 25. 10. 2011
