  Listening Length: 14 hours and 28 minutes
  
  Year Zero is a landmark reckoning
with the great drama that ensued after war came to an end in 1945. One world had ended and a new, uncertain one was
beginning. Regime change had come on a global scale: across Asia (including China, Korea, Indochina, and the
Philippines, and of course Japan) and all of continental Europe. Out of the often vicious power struggles that ensued
emerged the modern world as we know it.
  
  In human terms, the scale of transformation is almost impossible
to imagine. Great cities around the world lay in ruins, their populations decimated, displaced, starving. Harsh revenge
was meted out on a wide scale, and the ground was laid for much horror to come. At the same time, in the wake of
unspeakable loss, the euphoria of the liberated was extraordinary, and the revelry unprecedented. The postwar years gave
rise to the European welfare state, the United Nations, decolonization, Japanese pacifism, and the European Union.
Social, cultural, and political “reeducation” was imposed on vanquished by victors on a scale that also had
no historical precedent. Much that was done was ill advised, but in hindsight, as Ian Buruma shows us, these efforts
were in fact relatively enlightened, humane, and effective.
  
  A poignant grace note throughout this history
is Buruma’s own father’s story. Seized by the Nazis during the occupation of Holland, he spent much of the
war in Berlin as a laborer, and by war’s end was literally hiding in the rubble of a flattened city, having
barely managed to survive starvation rations, Allied bombing, and Soviet shock troops when the end came. His journey
home and attempted reentry into “normalcy” stand in many ways for his generation’s experience.
 

  A work of enormous range and stirring human drama, conjuring both the Asian and European theaters with equal
fluency, Year Zero is a book that Ian Buruma is perhaps uniquely positioned to write. It is surely his masterpiece.
