Taylor C. I have not read any of the burned books or admired any artists. I am not surprised that the Nazis targeted non-German authors either. The Nazis wanted to have complete control of what the people read, so their solution was to burn books.

Michael Vue No, it does not surprise me that the Nazis targeted non-German authors, because they were on a quest for world domination so why would they keep books that aren't about Germans or from German authors.

Laura Burch No, because Nazis wanted complete control and everyone to believe and do the same thing so it made sense to them to get rid of anything different.

Madeline Carlson I am not surprised that the German's targeted the non-German authors because they didn't think that what they were saying went with what they believed.

Dylan Magnuson I can't believe that they would burn books just because it opposed there leadership.

Mathieu De Steur Dear Sir or Madam, I have read many authors that were deemed evil by the nazi powers. I admired H.G. Wells well before i knew his books were burned, and to be honest, it filled me with some pride, to admire something Nazis loathed, to love something which they wanted to die. No, it didn't suprise me that the Nazis targeted non-German authors, logical outcome of their ideology. Let us remember the words of Bertolt Brecht: "Tut mir das nicht an! Laßt mich nicht übrig! Habe ich nicht Immer die Wahrheit berichtet in meinen Büchern? Und jetzt Werd ich von euch wie ein Lügner behandelt! Ich befehle euch, Verbrennt mich! " "
