The Strange Death of Europe is the internationally bestselling account of a continent and culture caught in the act of suicide. Douglas Murray takes a step back and explores the deeper issues behind the continent's possible demise, from an atmosphere of mass terror attacks and a global refugee crisis to the steady erosion of our freedoms. He addresses the disappointing failure of multiculturalism, Angela Merkel’s U-turn on migration, and the Western fixation on guilt. Murray travels to Berlin, Paris, Scandinavia, and Greece to uncover the malaise at the very heart of the European culture, and to hear the stories of those who have arrived in Europe from far away.

Declining birth rates, mass immigration, and cultivated self-distrust and self-hatred have come together to make Europeans unable to argue for themselves and incapable of resisting their own comprehensive alteration as a society and an eventual end. This sharp and incisive book ends up with two visions for a new Europe--one hopeful, one pessimistic--which paint a picture of Europe in crisis and offer a choice as to what, if anything, we can do next. But perhaps Spengler was right: "civilizations like humans are born, briefly flourish, decay, and die."

欧洲的离奇死亡》是国际畅销书，讲述了一个陷入自杀行为的大陆和文化。道格拉斯-默里退后一步，探讨了该大陆可能消亡背后的更深层次的问题，从大规模恐怖袭击的氛围和全球难民危机到我们的自由被不断侵蚀。他谈到了多元文化主义令人失望的失败，安格拉-默克尔在移民问题上的大转弯，以及西方对内疚的固执。默里前往柏林、巴黎、斯堪的纳维亚和希腊，揭示欧洲文化核心的萎靡不振，并听取那些从远方来到欧洲的人的故事。

出生率的下降、大规模的移民、培养出来的自我不信任和自我憎恨，共同使欧洲人无法为自己争辩，也没有能力抵抗他们自己作为一个社会的全面改变和最终的结束。这本尖锐而精辟的书最后提出了对新欧洲的两种设想--一种是充满希望的，一种是悲观的--这些设想描绘了处于危机中的欧洲，并提供了一个选择，即我们接下来可以做什么，如果有的话。但也许斯宾格勒是对的："文明就像人类一样诞生、短暂的繁荣、衰败和死亡"。
