Can friendship survive in a divided world? Written on the eve of the
Holocaust as a series of letters between a Jew in America and his
German friend, Kressmann Taylor's classic novel is a haunting tale of a
society poisoned by Nazism.
First published in 1938, Address Unknown met with immediate success in
English but was banned in Europe by the Nazis. Tragically prescient
about what was to come, it was one of the earliest works of fiction to
warn against the growing dangers of fascism and antisemitism in Europe.
It became an international bestseller and has been translated into more
than twenty languages.
A novel of enduring impact with a memorable sting in its tail, Address
Unknown stands as a powerful reminder of the dangers posed by the
rhetoric of intolerance.

Day of No Return In the mid-1930s, a brave young theological
student refused to preach Nazi doctrine and was denied ordination
in the German Lutheran church. He struggled to resist the Nazi
takeover of the church, but, with his life in danger, was ordered
out of the country by his bishop. He fled to the United States,
where, through the FBI, he contacted author Kressmann Taylor so she
could tell his story. Day of No Return is Kressmann Taylor's 1942
account of that true story, fictionalized to deceive the Nazis and
protect "Karl Hoffman" and his family still in Germany. Now his
subsequent life and true identity, which remained secret for the
rest of her life, are at last revealed in this dramatic new
edition. "Stirring dramatic interest." New York Times "Thrilling "
