Publisher's summary

Dans une vieille édition de Paris-Soir, celle du 31 décembre 1941, le narrateur lit, par hasard, une petite annonce dans la rubrique "D'hier à aujourd'hui". On y recherche une fugueuse âgée de quinze ans, Dora Bruder. Hier, c'est le temps du Paris occupé, de l'étoile jaune, des rafles et des internements ; aujourd'hui, ce sont les dernières années du XXe siècle, quand ce passé tragique taraude les vivants.

Entre le 25 février 1926, jour de naissance de Dora, et le 13 août 1942, date de son internement au camp de Drancy, l'écrivain enquêteur recherche les étincelles de vie qui combattent l'ensevelissement par l'oubli, et les transmet à l'auditeur avec justesse et émotion.

Quelle historie!

I few passages were omitted. I wish the recording had included every last bit!
The music was a moving addition.

Couldn't be a better introduction to Modiano

I find that Dora Bruder is an excellent entering point for Modiano's work. The voice and the narration of Didier Sandre are absolutely delightful. A verse in prose, the rhythm, the images. Don't miss it.
