In 1930, in the waning days of the Weimar Republic, an experiment in democratic government and workers’ rights, as well as various forms of sexual liberation, it was still possible for upper-class hostess Ilse Webber to invite a Social-Democrat union organizer named Mendelsohn, a Jewish banker named Weiss and a pro-Nazi intellectual librarian named Vogel to the same gathering.However, those days were coming to an end. It was a time of turmoil, with stormtroopers of the Sturmableitung, the brownshirts, creating disorder and mayhem on a daily basis. The struggle for reality and the power it brought to create reality, was between the Social-Democrats—the force standing for freedoms of the spirit and the mind—and the Nazis, with their industrialist and big business fellow travelers, standing for demonization of Jews and left-liberals and for violently imposing strict social controls on the people.This is a novel with a broad cast of characters, the inhabitants of a Prussian town in Germany not unlike similar-sized towns in the American heartland, living in the days just prior to and then after Adolph Hitler's rise to power in January 1933. All of them would experience profound changes to their day-to-day lives. Some would even be murdered--and their neighbors would be their murderersThis fast paced, eye-opening story is as current as any headline to be found in the pages of todays daily newspapers. Saul Braun is the author of the well regarded Catalog of Sexual Consciousness (Grove Press, 1976) and several highly lauded cover articles in the New York Times Sunday Magazine.
