What books do you recommend to really understand the cruelty and associated ideologies of the last century?

Obscure because most people have not seen these things.

People simply view death tolls and with no further understand they attribute those ideology as evil. However it is possible for the victor to make a mockery of history like in the case of the holocaust. Also significant people can be misunderstood like Solzhenitsyn, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn Harvard Address: a warning to the West, here in this video he is being applauded for pointing out challenges the modern faces. The audience has no clue that he is in favor of the downfall of the west in pursuit of such things as environmentalism and very much anarchistic/primitive ideas like banning scientific advancements. He does not appreciate the west, he wants to subvert it into his fantasy.
