History is written by the victors. Whether youre a hero or a traitor depends on which side you were on.
Author Jennifer Nielsen tells the stories of heroes and traitors. She offered a bit of insight into both during presentations for the Iola Reads program at local schools Tuesday, with a community discussion at the Bowlus Fine Arts Center that evening.
Nielsens book, A Night Divided, is the featured book for this years Iola Reads program. Its a story about a family divided by the overnight construction of the Berlin Wall.
