Daria Santini: The Exiles: Actors, Artists and Writers Who Fled the Nazis for London, Gebunden

Klappentext

London, 1934. Austrian actress Elisabeth Bergner dominated the British theatre scene, poet and director Berthold Viertel shot two successful films for Gaumont British; two great actors from the Weimar era, Conrad Veidt and Fritz Kortner, become well-known faces in English-speaking cinema and the Hungarian journalist Stefan Lorant launched the first ever continental-style illustrated magazine for the British newspaper market.
Exploring a phase in the history of Anglo-German relations during which the émigrés from Hitler's Germany were making their name in Britain, Daria Santini traces their presence in when these characters made their presence felt, all while the Nazi threat loomed.
