Race
Author(s): Ferdinand Bruckner
Bruckner's Race dramatizes the effects of the rise of Nazism and its anti-Jewish laws on a group of medical students in Germany in the early years of Hitler’s reign. Race dramatizes the love affair between Christian medical student Peter Karlanner and his Jewish girlfriend Helene Marx, a relationship clearly threatened by the Nazis’ racial laws.
