PARALLELS: Fictional Conversations, Real Annotations
What if a Nazi bureaucrat and a Trump administration official could compare notes?
Through a fictional "temporal communication device," Heinrich-a rising star in Hitler's Reich-and Mark-a contemporary American official-discover they have more in common than either expected. As their conversations unfold from 2024 to 2026, the parallels between 1930s Germany and modern America grow increasingly uncomfortable.
The conversations are fiction. The annotations are not.
Every historical reference, every policy comparison, every documented event cited in the extensive annotations draws from the historical record-Nazi Germany's descent into totalitarianism and America's current political trajectory. Emergency powers. Detention systems. Media control. The slow normalization of the unthinkable.
This dark political satire asks a simple question: If you could see the pattern, would you recognize it?
Includes comprehensive appendix with historical documentation, primary sources, and side-by-side comparisons.
And a full play ready to be acted upon in real life.
