Argumento de The Secret of the Blue Trunk (ebook)

In 1940 Armande Martel, a young nun from Quebec, is arrested by the Germans at her religious order in Brittany. She is sent as a POW to Buchenwald where she barely survives. After the war, she leaves religious life, marries, and adopts Lise Dion. When her mother dies, Lise discovers a key and the secret to her mother's blue trunk.

...touching and commendable...

Lise Dion is one of Quebec?s best-loved humorists. Over the years she has written countless scripts and appeared many times on television as a dramatic actress. The Secret of the Blue Trunk, a bestseller in Quebec, is her first book, and will be made into a movie.

Liedewy Hawke has won both the Canada Council Translation Prize and the John Glassco Translation Prize, and has been nominated four times for the Governor General?s Literary Award for Translation (French to English). She lives in Toronto.

Dion?s reconstructed narrative offers a new (and specifically Quebecois) voice, one that is refreshingly direct and compulsively readable.

The secrets Dion unravelled are so extraordinary, Armande?s tale so poignant, it made me think about the Diary of Anne Frank. The Secret of the Blue Trunk is a stellar Canadian biography.

?painfully frank and absorbing, and in the end, difficult to put down.

It is a terrible and tragic story that Dion has written, told in stark and straightforward words.

It is pure, fast-paced narrative.0
