Buchbeschreibung Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 304 pages.An extraordinary story of one woman's attempt to su rvive the horrors of Vichy France. From the oppressive scenes of 1930's Berlin where Franpoise Frenkel had established her French language bookshop, to her escape back to Paris and on through the south of France, this is the story of her dignified yet increasi ngly desperate attempts to flee from France as the Nazi noose tig htens. It is her story - but it is also the story of every refuge e fleeing persecution, clinging to every shred of dignity as they are left with no choice but to rely on the kindness of strangers . Franpoise Frenkel, a Jewish woman born in Poland and educated i n Paris and enamoured of all things literary and French. In 1921 she sets up the first French language bookshop in Berlin, recogni sing the craving for French culture in that city in the wake of W WI. Her business is a success - she hobnobs with diplomats and ce lebrities, authors and artists. But life in Berlin for a Jewish b usiness owner becomes untenable despite her desire to stand senti nel by her bookshop to the end. Frenkel is forced to flee to Pari s. Her husband fled earlier and was rounded up in Paris and sent first to Drancy and then to Auschwitz where he was murdered in Au gust 1942. Like so many others, Frenkel is compelled to keep movi ng, spending time in Avignon, Vichy, Nice and Grenoble, as she at tempted to survive in a world disintegrating around her. Her obse rvations of and interactions with the French, both those who deno unce her and those who themselves brave denunciation in offering her refuge, provide us with an insight into how humanity strives to assert itself in the dark interstices of a society imploding. Frenkel's attempts to flee across the Alps into Switzerland were ultimately successful and she published her story in 1945 in Gene va. But only recently was a copy of this forgotten work discovere d in Nice, and a decision made at French publishers, Gallimard, t o republish it, seventy years later in October 2015. Nobel-prize winning author, Patrick Modiano, has written a moving preface, in which he writes- The uniqueness of No place to lay one's head li es in the fact that we are unable precisely to identify its autho r. This account of the life of a woman who is hunted down in the south of France and the Haute Savoie during the Occupation is all the more striking for its apparent anonymitya Very little is kno wn of Franpoise Frenkel's subsequent life, except that she return ed to live in Nice where she had spent much of her time during th e war before her escape, and where she died in 1975. Frenkel's bo ok is the story of refugees, those fleeing terror, the world over . Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 3193ah
