Summary
Anne Weber: Annette, epic heroine
What a life! Born in Brittany in 1923, raised in modest circumstances, as a girl she was a member of the communist resistance movement in France, she saved two Jewish children — for which she would later receive the honorary title of Righteous Among the Nations from Yad Vashem — after the war she worked as a neurophysiologist in Marseille, in 1959 she was sentenced to ten years in prison for her involvement in the Algerian independence movement... Anne Weber talks about the incredible life of Anne in this brilliant biographical epic Beaumanoir. Scenes from her life, described in impressive language, open up many questions: what makes someone join the resistance movement? What are we sacrificing for it? How far can we go? What can we achieve? Annette, the epic heroine talks about a true heroine who concerns us all.
"The strength of Anne Weber's story can be measured by the strength of her heroine: it is astonishing how fresh the historical form of the epic sounds here and with what ease Anne Weber transformed the life story of the French member of the resistance movement, Anne Beaumanoir, into a novel about courage, resistance and the fight for freedom."
— From the explanation of the jury for German Literary Award 2020
