Description

'Illusions' follows the fictional Kaufmann family and friends as they struggle to survive the Second World War. Paul Kaufmann wishes only to be a great physician but he risks losing his family and his nationality because of threats at home and abroad. His father Alexander is a German patriot and according to the Nazis 'Jewish.' He stands to lose his life. Paul's sister Kirsten is well schooled in the cold-blooded realities of Nazi Germany and wants to rid the country of its curse. She pursues a romance that threatens to destroy—or save—everything she loves. Erich Krause and Johannes Baumüller, Paul's closest friends since university days, introduce surprising elements of danger to the family. Their love of homeland and family thrust our protagonists into the midst of some of the war's key events: the Holocaust, the plot to kill Hitler and German-American internment. The Kaufmanns and their friends approach these critical moments with the certainty of experience but they discover instead only maddening illusions. The cast includes well known public figures whose actions, as depicted here, are not always historically accurate: Field Marshal Erwin Rommel and his wife Lucie, Claus von Stauffenberg and his wife Nina, Soviet super-sniper Lyudmila Pavlichenko and a smattering of German officers and civilians.All other characters are composites, fabricated or imaginary. Any resemblance to persons living or dead is purely coincidental.
