Title: Crossing the Night - Geneviève De Gaulle Anthonioz - book
Summary :
Geneviève de Gaulle Anthonioz, deported to Ravensbrück, writes, more than fifty years later, the account of the months spent in solitary confinement, in the camp's dungeon, excluded among the excluded.
Why write only today? Is this journey through the night the origin of his future life choices, this attention paid to those who are victims of exclusion? The author does not answer these questions. It is the very simplicity of the story and the astonishing freshness of an incurable memory that bear witness. No one can emerge unscathed from this inner experience.
