GRGR Kristallnacht

[Doug Millison]

>>Michael Perez:
>>> I don't see the "crystal palace" reference as being to the
>>> Kristallnacht ("The Night of Broken Glass," 11/9/38, when Nazi mobs
>>> smashed Jewish owned shop windows and synagogues in retaliation for the
>>> assassination of a German diplomat in Paris by a young Jewish man).

[Of]  light, only great invisible crashing [Broken Glass]." (3.7-9)
