Tatiana de Rosnay Knihy

Paríž, júl 1942: Desaťročná Sarah je spolu s rodičmi zatknutá počas razie Vel’ d’Hiv’, známej kolaborácie s nacistami. Pred odvedením polície ukryje svojho mladšieho bračeka Michela do detskej skrine a necháva si kľúč, veriac, že sa čoskoro vráti. Paríž, máj 2002: Na šesťdesiate výročie zadržania Židov dostane americká novinárka Julia Jarmondová ponuku napísať článok o tejto tragickej udalosti. Po takmer dvadsiatich piatich rokoch života vo Francúzsku ju prekvapí nevedomosť a mlčanie okolo tejto témy. Julia sa pustí do pátrania a zistí, že byt jej svokrovcov kedysi vlastnili Židia. Netuší však, že objaví hrozné, dlho skrývané rodinné tajomstvo, ktoré ju spojí so Sarah a navždy zmení jej život. Sleduje utrpenie dieťaťa od hrozných dní vo Vel’ d’Hiv’ až po koncentračný tábor. Čím hlbšie pátra po Sarahinej minulosti, tým viac začína pochybovať o svojom mieste vo Francúzsku a prehodnocovať svoje manželstvo a život. Tatiana de Rosnayová píše o osude svojej krajiny s neľútostnou jasnosťou, ponúkajúc presvedčivý obraz okupovanej Francúzska a odhaľujúc tabu a odmietanie, ktoré dodnes obklopujú túto bolestnú epizódu dejín. Narodená v Paríži, Tatiana sa nielenže stala uznávanou autorkou, ale aj novinárkou a literárnou kritičkou. Od roku 1992 vydala dvanásť románov vo francúzštine a šesť v angličtine.
