I Paris 1942 låser en 10 år gammel livredd jente lillebroren inne i et skap like før det franske politiet henter den jødiske familien. Hun tror han er trygg der, og at hun snart kommer tilbake ... 60 år senere skal journalisten Julia Jarmond skrive en artikkel om denne svarte dagen i Frankrikes historie. Mens hun gjør research, snubler hun over Saras historie, en historie som tvinger henne til å stille spørsmål ved sitt eget liv. Saras nøkkel har blitt en gripende film med Kristin Scott-Thomas i hovedrollen. Tatiana de Rosnay har engelsk, russisk og fransk bakgrunn og bor i dag i Paris. Hun har jobbet som redaktør for Vanity Fair og som journalist for Elle.
A collection of personal poems that weave together a collage of moments--from an ode to carpet to a fantastical friendship with a vampire to chronicles of a first love now broken. This is a collection that will speak to the young, the inspired, the traveled, and the wise. “Sara Crawford’s confessional poems capture youth in a way that’s delicate, authentic, and will break your heart.” - Amelia Cook, Black Heart Magazine “A young writer who has a burgeoning voice that is altogether recognizable with a touch of Southern charm.” - Virgogray Press Originally published in 2010.
Resourceful fourteen-year-old Odette is on the move again, traveling as a stowaway on a cheese cart with her hapless mother, Anneline. They are in Burgundy, France, in 1799, fleeing yet another calamity caused by Anneline (who is prone to killing people accidentally). At dawn they find themselves in a town called Nevers, which is filled with eccentric characters, including a man who obsessively smells hands, another who dreams of becoming a chicken and a donkey that keeps the town awake at night, braying about his narrow life. As Odette establishes a home in an abandoned guardhouse, she makes a friend in the relaxed Nicois and finds work as a midwife's assistant. She and Nicois uncover a mystery that may lead to riches and, more important for Odette, a sense of belonging.
