Più della metà del libro è stupenda, alternando le vicende di Sara e della sua famiglia durante il rastrellamento del Velodrome d'Hiver, pagine toccante e a tratti difficili da leggere, alle vicende di una giornalista americana trapiantata in Francia, la quale deve scrivere un articolo sul sessantesimo anniversario di questa triste vicenda che vede coinvolti non tanto i nazisti ma i francesi. Le due vite si incrocieranno, bellissimo come si incontreranno, ma da qui in poi la narrazione lascia spazio ad approfondimenti e divagazioni personali della giornalista che in qualche modo fanno perdere credibilità, intensità a quanto raccontato prima..Avrei fatto volentieri a meno di quest'ultima parte del libro.

"Tatiana de Rosnay offers a brilliantly subtle, compelling portrait of France under occupation and reveals the taboos and silence that surround the painful episode in that country's history. De Rosnay's U.S. debut fictionalizes the 1942 Paris roundups and deportations, in which thousands of Jewish families were arrested, held at the Velodrome d'Hiver outside the city, then transported to Auschwitz. Forty-five-year-old Julia Jarmond, American by birth, moved to Paris when she was 20 and is married to the arrogant, unfaithful Bertrand Tezac, with whom she has an 11-year-old daughter. Julia writes for an American magazine and her editor assigns her to cover the 60th anniversary of the Vel' d'Hiv' roundups. Julia soon learns that the apartment she and Bertrand plan to move into was acquired by Bertrand's family when its Jewish occupants were dispossessed and deported 60 years before. She resolves to find out what happened to the former occupants: Wladyslaw and Rywka Starzynski, parents of 10-year-old Sarah and four-year-old Michel. The more Julia discovers — especially about Sarah, the only member of the Starzynski family to survive — the more she uncovers about Bertrand's family, about France and, finally, herself. Already translated into 15 languages, the novel is De Rosnay's 10th (but her first written in English, her first language). It beautifully conveys Julia's conflicting loyalties, and makes Sarah's trials so riveting, her innocence so absorbing, that the book is hard to put down." Publishers Weekly (starred review) This is without a doubt the best book I've ever read. I was actually reading it during finals today, and I reached the saddest part in the book and began to cry. This book touched me and made me think like no other book ever has. Appartiene alle Collane EditorialiBvT (0548) Ha l'adattamentoHa ispiratoHa come guida per lo studentePremi e riconoscimentiMenzioni
