Sie berichten von der Angst, vom Verlust geliebter Menschen, von der eigenen Art der Vergangenheitsbewältigung - aber auch von Neuanfängen, unverhofftem Glück und der Liebe.

Sie erlebten Krieg, Vertreibung und Armut, waren als Frauen benachteiligt und oft ohne Perspektive. Und dennoch: Sie kämpften, setzten sich durch, machten ihren Weg. Wurden Schriftstellerinnen, Musikerinnen, Politikerinnen oder Journalistinnen. Lebten in Shanghai, den USA, in Kenia oder Namibia. In 25 Gesprächen erzählen Zeitzeuginnen des 20. Jahrhunderts ihre persönliche Geschichte. Lebenswege mit unterschiedlichen deutschsprachigen Wurzeln: Prag, Wien, Ungarn, Lettland, der Banat.

The last years of King Charles IX's reign in France were dominated by religious wars between Catholics and Protestants. Queen Margot begins in 1572 with the marriage of Marguerite de Valois to Henri de Navarre. Marguerite is King Charles' sister and the daughter of Henri II and Catherine de Medici, all firm Catholics. Henri de Navarre is a Protestant who later will become the beloved King Henri IV. Several important political events have led up to this marriage including the mysterious murder of Henri de Navarre's mother, cleverly plotted by Catherine de Medici. The wedding brings noblemen from all over the world to Paris resulting in the notorious Saint Bartholomew Massacre, where thousands of Protestants are killed. In this inventive and compelling novel, Dumas brings an extraordinary period of history vividly to life with much excitement and romance. The lively prose and wonderfully constructed plot tell of court intrigues and forbidden love, of beautiful queens, duchesses, and noblemen, suspense, conspiracies, betrayals, assassinations, superstitions, poisonings, and sumptuous feasts. With well-known historical figures as main characters in a dangerous and breathtaking game for power, Queen Margot tells of conspiracies, clandestine trysts, and daring escapes. There is the infamous Catherine de Medici, deliciously evil, constantly plotting and poisoning; Le Mole, a dashing and irresistable young Protestant who becomes Marguerite's lover; the noble Coconnos who provides a great source of comic relief; and at the center of all this intrigue are the good-hearted Marguerite and Henri who are perfect political allies with complicated and fascinating love lives.

Comedian Margot Leitman was one of these awkward giants, and Gawky is the painfully funny chronicle of her experiences growing up tall.
