  7. The boy behind Kristallnacht

    On the night of Nov. 7, 1938, at the German Embassy in Paris, a 17-year-old Polish Jew named Herschel Grynszpan gained access to the office of a low-ranking Nazi named Ernst vom Rath by promising to turn over an "important document." Instead, Grynszpan fired five bullets at Rath; only two of them hit their target, but one proved fatal. Despite multiple transfusions of good French blood and the ministrations of Hitler's personal physician, Rath died two days later in a Paris clinic.

  23. David Sedaris on 'Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls'

    Can't afford to travel the world? Don't worry &mdash; David Sedaris does it for you. In "Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls," his hilarious new collection of essays, America's best-selling literary funnyman hits the road. Various essays find him in Paris, London, Tokyo, Beijing, Athens, Amsterdam, Dublin and Melbourne, as well as New York, Chicago (where he lived for several years in the 1980s and '90s) and, at least in memory, his home state of North Carolina. Much of the humor springs from the way Americans &mdash; in particular, Sedaris himself &mdash; see the world, and vice versa.
