Angel of Oblivion
Angel of Oblivion is a 2011 autobiographical novel written by bilingual Slovenian-German Austrian writer Maja Haderlap.

The novel highlights Austria's only militarily organised resistance against National Socialism - the Carinthian minority of Carinthian Slovenes as one of the non-Jewish Holocaust's victims.Awards
