Join Vermont Author Jack Mayer for a discussion: "How Germany's Weimar Democracy Became the Third Reich: the history that inspired his acclaimed and historically factual novel, BEFORE THE COURT OF HEAVEN."
Free and open to the public thanks to the sponsorship of the Vermont Humanities Council.

Before the Court of Heaven is based on the true story of a fascist assassin, Ernst Werner Techow and his turning from evil. Three themes impel this novel: understanding the rise of Nazism, unfathomable forgiveness, and the complexity of redemption. A portrait of Germany between world wars, from revolution and unrest following World War I to the rise of the Nazis, World War II and the Holocaust, Before the Court of Heaven portrays ordinary people becoming complicit in extraordinary crimes.
