Snedläst. Klotbandet nedsmutsat. "Reaching for the stars is an account of the experiences and observations of a Quaker American who lived in Germany in the years 1934-38 while her husband was studying music in a variety of centres: also trips into Austria and what was then Czechoslovakia.
It reveals the clever manipulation of the German people, the stealthy reduction of freedom, and the misplaced enthusiasm of many guileless people, all for the love of the Fatherland....or so they thought. Those who were wise enough to realise what was happening were helpless. The cruelty is always just below the surface, erupting occasionally but only whispered about."
