'Winnie and Wolf' by A.N. Wilson

Better known as a novelist, British writer A.N. Wilson is also a biographer of such literary figures as Tolstoy and C.S. Lewis. In his latest book, he draws upon both strengths as he conjures up two real-life characters, Adolf Hitler and Winifred (known as "Winnie") Wagner, composer Richard Wagner's British-born daughter-in-law and Hitler acolyte.
