What happens when our values change, but what we have set in stone does not? When the Second World War ended, its monuments were built to tell the story. But what story? The cataclysm of global conflict was experienced very differently across the world, and the monuments reflect this. In the vein of Tim Marshall’s Prisoners ofGeography, bestselling historian Keith Lowe takes us on a global tour - from Berlin to Moscow, Seoul to Hiroshima, the Philippines to Israel, Lithuania to Washington and gives a bold new account of the way the world reacted in the wake of the Second World War. Amongst many questions, this book asks: why is Russia still erecting victory monuments at a dizzying rate for a war now some seventy years over? Why, despite loathing his legacy, does the town of Mussolini’s final resting place still honour his tomb like a shrine? Why does a bronze statue in Seoul of a young giri with a bird on her shoulder cause such outrage in neighbouring Japan? And how did a local controversy over a monument in New Jersey escalate into a frillblown international incident between Poland and the USA? Offering a practical history and a perspective-changing case forthe power of our symbols, each monument here represents heroes or monsters, victims or moments of apocalypse. And none of them are really about the past at all.
