Sarah's Key de Tatiana De Rosnay

Sarah's Key: St. Martins Press-3PL

Autor Tatiana De Rosnay
en Limba Engleză Hardback – iun 2007

Descoperim în Sarah's Key o dilemă morală sfâșietoare, ascunsă sub straturile de tăcere ale istoriei pariziene: ce se întâmplă cu promisiunile făcute în momente de teroare absolută? Premisa este pe cât de simplă, pe atât de devastatoare. În iulie 1942, micuța Sarah este ridicată de poliția franceză în timpul infamei razii de la Vel' d'Hiv', dar nu înainte de a-și încuia fratele mai mic într-un dulap secret, convinsă că se va întoarce să-l elibereze în câteva ore. Această cheie, purtată ca un talisman al vinovăției și speranței, devine puntea peste decenii către Julia Jarmond, o jurnalistă care, în 2002, începe să dezgroape secretele unei națiuni care a preferat să uite.

Observăm cum Tatiana De Rosnay construiește o narațiune pe două planuri, unde ritmul alert al investigației contemporane contrastează dureros cu sobrietatea evocării trecutului. Cititorul care a apreciat modul în care secretele de familie redefinesc prezentul în The Resistance Girl de Jina Bacarr va găsi aici o explorare similară a identității — dar într-un context mult mai ancorat în realitatea istorică a Franței ocupate. Stilul autoarei este marcat de o sensibilitate reținută, evitând senzaționalismul pentru a lăsa loc greutății faptelor documentate.

Această lucrare ocupă un loc central în opera autoarei, fiind punctul de plecare pentru explorările ulterioare ale secretelor domestice și ale traumei transgeneraționale pe care le regăsim în A Secret Kept sau The Rain Watcher. Dacă în alte romane Tatiana De Rosnay se concentrează pe dinamica familială modernă, aici ea reușește să integreze drama individuală într-un context istoric colectiv, oferind o perspectivă nuanțată asupra responsabilității și memoriei.

Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere mai profundă a unui episod dureros din istoria europeană, totul prin prisma unei povești personale despre devotament fratern și curaj.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
A "New York Times" bestseller. Paris, July 1942: Sarah, a ten year-old girl, is brutally arrested with her family by the French police in the Vel' d'Hiv' roundup, but not before she locks her younger brother in a cupboard in the family's apartment, thinking that she will be back within a few hours.
Paris, May 2002: On Vel' d'Hiv's 60th anniversary, journalist Julia Jarmond is asked to write an article about this black day in France's past. Through her contemporary investigation, she stumbles onto a trail of long-hidden family secrets that connect her to Sarah. Julia finds herself compelled to retrace the girl's ordeal, from that terrible term in the Vel d'Hiv', to the camps, and beyond. As she probes into Sarah's past, she begins to question her own place in France, and to reevaluate her marriage and her life.
Tatiana de Rosnay offers us a brilliantly subtle, compelling portrait of France under occupation and reveals the taboos and silence that surround this painful episode.

Recenzii

"This is the shocking, profoundly moving and morally challenging story... It will haunt you, it will help to complete you... nothing short of miraculous." -Augusten Burroughs "Just when you thought you might have read about every horror of the Holocaust, a book will come along and shine a fierce light upon yet another haunting wrong. SARAH'S KEY is such a novel. In remarkably unsparing, unsentimental prose... through a lens so personal and intimate, it will make you cry--and remember." -Jenna Blum, author of Those Who Save Us "A haunting, riveting novel... This book grabs your heart in the opening chapter, and its scenes and characters stay with you long after you finish." --Publishers Weekly, a PW 2008 Staff Pick "Masterly and compelling, it is not something that readers will quickly forget. Highly recommended."-Library Journal, Starred Review "Exceptional, emotional, and compelling..." - "Sacramento Bee" "A powerful novel... Tatiana de Rosnay has captured the insane world of the Holocaust and the efforts of the few good people who stood up against it in this work of fiction more effectively than has been done in many scholarly studies. It is a book that makes us sensitive to how much evil occurred and also to how much willingness to do good also existed in that world." --Rabbi Jack Riemer, South Florida Jewish Journal "A remarkable novel written with eloquence and empathy." -Paula Fox, author of Borrowed Finery "A story of hearts broken, first by the past, then by family secrets, and the truth that begins to repair the pieces. A beautiful novel." -Linda Francis Lee, bestselling author of The Ex-Debutante "SARAH'S KEY unlocks the star crossed, heart thumping story of an Americanjournalist in Paris and the 60-year-old secret that could destroy her marriage. This book will stay on your mind long after it's back on the shelf." -Risa Miller, author of Welcome to Heavenly Heights "This is a remarkable historical novel... it's a book that impresses itself upon one's heart and soul forever." -Naomi Ragen, author of The Saturday Wife

The heartbreak is real, the love is true, and the need to find out how their two lives are connected made this one of my absolute favorites!" -Sarah Galvin, The Bookstore Plus, Lake Placid, NY "Just read "Sarah's Key" and LOVED IT... SUCH FUN TO DISCOVER A TREASURE. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING." -Diane Garrett, Diane's Books of Greenwich "I was overwhelmed by a novel that I had missed when it first came our way--Sarah's Key.

An outstanding personalization of the horrors of the hococaust." -Charlotte Hanebuth, Book Club Member "A beautifully written, poignant novel based on a shameful period in French history. A must read for all lovers of historical fiction." -Barbara Mix, Book Club Member "Totally excellent book. Read it in one day. The book made me aware of the French round up.

Such an interesting and mysterious story!" -Sue Sneary, Book Club Member "Tatiana's ability to get me into the 'head' of her characters is phenomenal. I had such empathy for Julia and Sarah." -Kathleen Voight, Book Club Member "The book is beautifully written - two stories that intersect in a Paris apartment.
