I just learned of this guy a few days ago and haven't read any of the books yet, but I'm wondering if picking a title that is one common translation of Mein Kampf is provocative, ironic, or just plain ignorant.

@ riz, good point. No reason why one schlubby megalomaniac should permanently poison the use of a perfectly serviceable word.

lord jesus am I glad I'm not in college any more. I'd have died if I had to plod through this in a modern literature class.

In Norwegian it's "Min Kamp" which says that a., this guy has a great sense of irony, and b., has an an ego to go along with it. I've only read the first volume, it's terrific.
