Created practically in those days when the National Socialist Party consolidated power over Germany in the winter of 1933, the novel by the anti-fascist writer Lion Feuchtwanger "The Opperman Family" shows the fall of the Weimar Republic through the eyes of a wealthy bourgeois Jewish family, shaken and paralyzed by the new prevailing ideology. The Opperman brothers are true pillars of society and embody loyalty to traditions and stability in the spirit of the Weimar era: one of them owns a furniture company founded by their grandfather, another is an outstanding surgeon, and the third is a respected writer. Wealthy, cultured people, proud heirs of German liberalism, the Oppermans do not see the threat emanating from the Nazi party striving for power for a long time, but when they find themselves under its rule, they face a terrible choice: to try to adapt to the new order, to flee, or to rise up in desperate struggle...
