A proposito di questo titolo
Charlotte Salomon Paints Her Life
Inspired by the life and work of Charlotte Salomon, this novel shows an artist intent on pursuing her art against all odds. As a young German-Jewish art student at The Berlin Art Academy during Hitler's rise to power in 1938, Charlotte's first place prize is denied because she is a Jew, her enrollment annulled. After Kristallnacht, she is sent from Berlin into exile with her grandparents.
When Charlotte's grandmother leaps to her death, her Old World grandfather shocks her with the family secret, a legacy of female suicides. She struggles against her grandfather's insistence that suicide, not art, is her destiny too.
Haunted by the encroaching terror of the Third Reich and the threat of psychological disintegration, Charlotte clings to her determination to become a serious modernist painter, to complete her monumental work "Life? Or Theater?" and get it into safekeeping in a race against time before capture by the Nazis.
