No rating, because how could I give the tragedy of someone's life a star rating?
Charlotte is a beautiful book.
It is intense, melancholic, sad, a gem reflecting death, and pain, and the unfiltered experience of life as a Jew during World War 2.
This book features everything disastrous, but also beauty, creativity, inspiration. Freedom during a time where there was none.
"... - the beauty and the terror were two sides of a single coin."
(That's a quote from Pat Barker's 'The Silence Of the Girls', but I thought it fitting. It perfectly sums up this book and all its uniqueness.)

Un beau livre, très poétique. Le rythme des phrases courtes et directes fonctionne à merveille avec le thème, mais dans un sens dangereux pour moi, puisqu'il déclenchait souvent un fond d'anxiété.

Ce livre est une biographie d'une artiste juive morte dans un camp de concentration pendant la seconde guerre mondiale, et issue d'une famille dans laquelle beaucoup de suicides ont eu lieu. Les thèmes abordés sont donc en conséquence très lourds, mais ils sont traités avec beaucoup de délicatesse.mouettee's review against another edition
