Non Frangimur
This memoir covers the first six decades of the life of Klaus D. Bowers: a comfortable early childhood in Germany, a tough transition to being an impecunious refugee in England, an outstanding academic career at Oxford, and then thirty-three years with AT&T's Bell Labs during its glory days before its dismemberment. The introduction by Charles D. Snelling tells the genesis of this memoir. Little by little Snelling had become aware of some of Bowers's early history, and he became determined that Bowers should overcome his reluctance and write up this tale of triumph over the "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune." This, fourteen years after taking early retirement, he finally did.

The Turning Point: Thirty-Five Years in this Century, the Autobiography of Klaus Mann
In this second installment of his autobiography (following Kind dieser Zeit), Klaus Mann describes his childhood in the family of Thomas Mann and his circle, his adolescence in the Weimar Republic, and his experiences as a young homosexual and early opponent of Nazism. He also describes how, after the Reichstag elections of September 1930, friends and family began to discuss the looming prospect of emigration and exile. When Stefan Zweig published an article claiming that democracy was ineffective, Klaus replied: “I want to have nothing, nothing at all to do with this perverse kind of ‘radicalism.’” After hearing one of his working-class lovers in a storm trooper’s uniform say, “...
