Description

Within the spring of 1940, Eric Koch used to be a law student in London. By autumn, he used to be being held at the back of barbed wire in Quebec.

Koch used to be arrested as an enemy alien by the British government and sent to a prison camp in Canada; but he and hundreds of alternative “dangerous Nazi” prisoners were actually refugees–such a lot of them young and Jewish, themselves fleeing from Hitler. On this book Koch recounts the struggles and joys of his Canadian internment, the relaxation at being spared the horrors of Nazi-occupied Europe, the bitter irony of being confined as a German enemy.

Written with a rare blend of honesty, humour and heat, Deemed Suspect vividly recreates life in Canada’s prison camps all over World War Two.
