當一個猶太女孩因日記出版而成名,另一個女孩卻幾乎被世人遺忘……
Jillian Cantor大膽想出文學名著《安妮日記》背後隱藏的真相!
1959年春天,《安妮日記》改編的同名電影登上大銀幕,獲得當時各界一致好評。同時間,費城有位年輕女子Margie Franklin,平常在一家猶太法律事務所工作,表面上看起來和一般人沒兩樣,實際上她所不願承認的過去,包括信仰、家庭與國家,都註定了她的與眾不同。
Margie Franklin的本名是Margot Frank,也就是《安妮日記》作者安妮的姊姊。她並非如外界傳言死於貝爾根,而是平安地逃離納粹的魔掌,輾轉來到美國。可是現在妹妹安妮成為世人目光的焦點,間接使得Margie苦心建立的美國生活岌岌可危。
一場初初萌芽的戀情支持著她捱過了驚險的戰爭時分,如今面臨平靜生活的崩毀,始終心懷歉疚的Margie被迫必須正視過去名為Margot的人生,並且勇敢面對歷史所帶來的考驗。(文/博客來編譯)
Anne Frank has long been a symbol of bravery and hope, but there were two sisters hidden in the annex, two young Jewish girls, one a cultural icon made famous by her published diary and the
other, nearly forgotten.
In the spring of 1959, The Diary of Anne Frank has just come to the silver screen to great acclaim, and a young woman named Margie Franklin is working in Philadelphia as a secretary at a
Jewish law firm. On the surface she lives a quiet life, but Margie has a secret: a life she once lived, a past and a religion she has denied, and a family and a country she left behind.
Margie Franklin is really Margot Frank, older sister of Anne, who did not die in Bergen-Belsen as reported, but who instead escaped the Nazis for America. But now, as her sister becomes a
global icon, Margie’s carefully constructed American life begins to fall apart. A new relationship threatens to overtake the young love that sustained her during the war, and her past and
present begin to collide. Margie is forced to come to terms with Margot, with the people she loved, and with a life swept up into the course of history.
