Norman Ohler (born 1970) is an German New York Times bestselling screenwriter, novelist, and author most well-known for his novel Blitzed the War on Drugs: The Story of Drugs and Drug Enforcement in Nazi Germany that has been published in more than 25 languages.

In 2004 Ohler received an invitation from his fellow writers at the German Goethe-Institut to be a writer-in-residence for Ramallah. In Ramallah, Ohler wrote about the daily life of Palestinians living in West Bank. He also wrote about the Palestinians in West Bank and published the final interview Yassir Arafat conducted shortly prior to his passing. Ohler is also a resident writer in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

However, other historians disagreed with Ohler’s approach. German historian, Nikolaus Wachsmann wrote that Ohler “appears to mix fact and fiction. […] He spices up the evidence, throws in pop culture references (“Teutonic Easy Riders”), and garnishes it with snazzy puns (“High Hitler”). It remains to be seen if this recipe will appeal to anglophone readers. To borrow Ohler’s style: will they experience a big buzz, or a bad trip?”. Dagmar Herzog expressed the view that ‘Ohler’s analysis does not withstand close scrutiny. (…) Anyone seeking a deepened understanding of the Nazi period must be wary of a book that provides more distraction and distortion than clarification.’ James Pugh judged that while the book is an ‘engaging and entertaining piece of journalistic history’, it was ‘troubling based on its tone, scholarship and engagement with the literature’. Richard J. Evans, Regius Professor of History at the University of Cambridge from 2008 to 2014, author of History of the Third Reich, called Blitzed ‘a crass and dangerously inaccurate account’ He also wrote that the book is ‘morally and politically dangerous’, because it implies that Hitler was not responsible for his actions. Ohler rejected this claim. Evans replied: “′Blitzed′ belongs not in the world of serious history, but in the new landscape of ‘post-truth’ and ‘alternative facts’”.
