The novel “The Postcard” by Anne Berest – culture

In her impressive book “The Postcard”, the French author Anne Berest traces her family history, from Auschwitz to present-day Paris – which is also not free from anti-Semitism.

Anne only remembers the postcard thing when she is pregnant, ten years after her arrival. In January 2003, Anne’s mother, Lélia, called the family around the table and showed it to everyone, you can see the Opéra Garnier on it with its neo-baroque facade, four names are written on the back, no sender, it is addressed to Anne’s deceased grandmother.
