This work of historical fiction explores how real people struggle to recognize and confront tyranny, whether it is in Hitler's Germany or in 21st century America. "Die B ckerei" follows a reluctant hero from his origins in the Armenian Genocide in 1918, to the horror of life in Berlin during the 1940's, and finally to the tragedy at America's southern border in the recent past. This fast-paced historical adventure was inspired by two of the author's heroes from the German Resistance, both of whom appear in the book. The first is Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the brilliant theologian. Bonhoeffer was hung with piano wire at Flossenb rg concentration camp on the direct order of Hitler, only one week before it was liberated. The second is Erika von Brockdorff, a young mother and pamphleteer who was guillotined at Pl tzensee Prison.
