The new book “The Brother's Secret” by Dan Smith tells the story of heroic, persistent young men and women living under the yoke of the most brutal totalitarian regimes... But even here there will always be people ready to defend freedom and justice. Edelweiss, a flower that grows in incredibly difficult natural conditions, has long become a symbol of courage and perseverance. It was this name that the boys and girls who were not afraid to remain faithful to their convictions in Nazi Germany, to go AGAINST the current, to distinguish between Good and Evil, Truth and False, chose for their union. “Edelweiss Pirates” is an association of German youth that resisted the fascist regime.
