Title : The Woman Revealed - Gaëlle Nohant - Book
Summary :
Paris, 1950. Eliza Donnelley is hiding in a modest hotel under the name Violet Lee. She has abruptly abandoned the upscale neighborhoods of Chicago, a wealthy husband, and her young son, carrying only a suitcase, her Rolleiflex, and a photograph of her son.
In a Paris that is rediscovering light after the gray years, Violet tries to reinvent herself. Through the lens of her camera, she tames the city, capturing the faces of the humble, the invisible. And, discovering a new independence, she lets herself be swept away by the breath of a passion. But how can she bear being hunted, torn apart by the pain of exile? And above all, how can she forgive herself for abandoning a son?
An entire chapter of the 20th century is reborn under his pen, blending post-war pain with modern freedoms. A must-read. Flavie Philipon, She .
A formidable human fresco on two continents. Alice Develey, The Literary Figaro.
