The Ordinary Face of Evil
On February 13, 1979, Anders Behring Breivik was born in Oslo, Norway - a date that would later mark the beginning of a devastating narrative culminating in the country's darkest day. What makes the story of Norway's worst terrorist attack so haunting isn't just the 77 lives lost, but how it forces us to confront an unsettling truth: extremism isn't always foreign or distant. Sometimes it emerges from within the fabric of even the most peaceful societies. As Barack Obama noted when praising this account, this is "a remarkable book" precisely because it helps us understand "how terrorism can happen anywhere." The parallel lives of the perpetrator and his victims raise a chilling question: how does someone transform into a calculated killer while appearing so ordinary to those around them?
