The Ragged Edge of Night by Olivia Hawker
3.0
Wondeful story based in an amazing man but
....reading the author's note at the end put my teeth on edge. I was glad to read that Anton Starzman was actually a real person and this story is solidly based on Mrs. Hawker's research. She said it best "the story of an ordinary person who fought back against some of the worst impulses of the heart."
And yet her comparing Nazi Germany to the atmosphere during and now after the presidential election of 2016 frustrated me. Do we have this atmosphere in America? Yes, sadly we do. Was it born in the fall of 2016? No...we have been on this collision course for a long time.
I pray for more Antons in our country for I agree with Mrs. Hawker....the same evil lives on.
