SUMMARY:Hybrid Book Talk: Anne Berest in Conversation with Rachel Seiffert\, The Postcard
DESCRIPTION:The Wiener Holocaust Library is delighted to host this in conversation book talk event with author Anne Berest on her latest book\, The Postcard as part of our Family Histories of the Holocaust series. You can sign up to attend this event in person or online – registration details below. \nAnne Berest’s The Postcard is among the most acclaimed and beloved French novels of recent years. Luminous and gripping to the very last page\, it is an enthralling investigation into family secrets\, a poignant tale of mothers and daughters\, and a vivid portrait of twentieth-century Parisian intellectual and artistic life. \nJanuary\, 2003. Together with the usual holiday cards\, an anonymous postcard is delivered to the Berest family home. On the front\, a photo of the Opéra Garnier in Paris. On the back\, the names of Anne Berest’s maternal great-grandparents\, Ephraïm and Emma\, and their children\, Noémie and Jacques—all killed at Auschwitz. \nFifteen years after the postcard is delivered\, Anne\, the heroine of this novel\, is moved to discover who sent it and why. Aided by her chain-smoking mother\, family members\, friends\, associates\, a private detective\, a graphologist\, and many others\, she embarks on a journey to discover the fate of the Rabinovitch family: their flight from Russia following the revolution\, their journey to Latvia\, Palestine\, and Paris. What emerges is a moving saga of a family devastated by the Holocaust and partly restored through the power of storytelling that shatters long-held certainties about Anne’s family\, her country\, and herself. \nWINNER OF THE AMERICAN CHOIX GONCOURT PRIZE \nWINNER OF THE PRIX RENAUDOT DES LYCÉENS \nWINNER OF THE ELLE READERS PRIZE \nFINALIST FOR THE GONCOURT PRIZE \nFINALIST FOR BOOK CLUB FOR THE NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD \nFINALIST FOR FICTION FOR NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD \nAbout the Speakers\nAnne Berest is the bestselling co-author of How to Be \n Parisian Wherever You Are (Doubleday\, 2014) and the author of a novel based on the life of French writer Françoise Sagan.
