Requests:  0 Summary:  "In the foment of Weimar-era Berlin, the Oppermann brothers represent tradition and stability. One brother oversees the furniture chain founded by their grandfather, one is an eminent surgeon, one a respected critic. They are rich, cultured, liberal, and public spirited, proud inheritors of the German enlightenment. They don't see Hitler as a threat. Then, to their horror, the Nazis come to power, and the Oppermanns and their children are faced with the terrible decision of whether to adapt - if they can - flee, or try to fight. Written in 1933, nearly in real time, The Oppermanns captures the day-to-day vertigo of watching a liberal democracy fall apart. As Joshua Cohen writes in his introduction to this new edition, it is "one of the last masterpieces of German-Jewish culture." Prescient and chilling, it has lost none of its power today." -- Jacket flap.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Feuchtwanger   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Feuchtwanger   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction Feuchtwanger pbk Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Feuchtwanger   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
