Curriculum Violette - Robert Crawford - Bog

''Curriculum Violette'' is poet and biographer Robert Crawford''s commemoration of Violette Szabo (1921-45), the remarkable French-born British agent who fought alongside members of the Resistance in wartime France and who died at Ravensbr├╝ck concentration camp. Published to mark the centenary of her birth, ''Curriculum Violette'' uses familiar forms - most obviously that of the CV - to present Violette Szabo''s multifaceted life in England, France, Scotland, and Germany. Pithily and arrestingly, it sums up a life whose insistent humanity shines through the timetabled, mechanical systems of military and civilian life, and even through the bureaucracy of death.''The work is published in English/French parallel text.
