About This Novel
In 1929, his aunt Mang passed away, and George Weber returned to his hometown to attend the funeral. The death of his aunt caused him to lose the last trace of connection with his hometown. Soon, his debut novel "The Tomb of the Mountains" was published, and George became famous in one fell swoop. However, because this work with a strong autobiographical flavor had no intention of revealing the truth about his family, George fell into a torrent of censure from relatives and friends, and could never go home again. During this period, he gradually discovered people's hidden fears, vulnerabilities, and self-deceptions in the shadow of the Great Depression of 1929. This is the real American tragedy. In March 1936, after the second book was published, George received a warm welcome in Germany, but he also realized the illusion of fame and fortune, and the spread of Hitler and his Nazi faction.
