Former Priest Turned Author Visits The Town Book Store

Meet former Westfield resident Salvatore Tagliareni, author of the novel, Hitler’s Priest.  At the heart of novel is Hans Keller, a highly intelligent architect and atheist. A chance meeting with Josef Goebbels, a charismatic leading figure in the burgeoning Nazi Party, places Keller on a path that will offer him a key role in shaping the future of Nazi Germany—by providing influence within the Catholic Church. Intertwined with this tale is the story of the Pittelli family, hard-working Italians who find themselves caught up in the monumental events of the period.


S.J.Tagliareni is a story teller, business consultant, art dealer and former Catholic priest. During his doctoral studies he was blessed with the opportunity to study with Dr.Viktor Frankl author of "Man's Search for Meaning".


If you are unable to attend this event, feel free to call The Town Book Store at (908) 233-3535 to reserve an autographed copy of his book.
