Synopsis of Cartes a Camondo
Convidat a exposar les seves peces de cerà mica al museu Nissim de Camondo, Edmund de Waal va gaudir del sobtat privilegi d'endinsar-se en un dels palauets més luxosos de ParÃs, antiga propietat d'una influent famÃlia sefardita. Construït per desig del prestigiós filantrop i col·leccionista d'art Moïse de Camondo l'any 1912, l'edifici acull des d'aleshores una extraordinà ria col·lecció d'art francès del segle xviii. Ben aviat, però, els Camondo van esdevenir objecte de l'antisemitisme, tal com havia passat als Ephrussi, antecessors de De Waal. L'infaust destà d'aquest il·lustre llinatge va marcar De Waal, que va començar a escriure les cartes aplegades en aquest llibre per retre homenatge al record d'una famÃlia perduda i «contrarestar el silenci del desdeny». El resultat és una reflexió personalÃssima i commovedora sobre el preu de l'assimilació, la malenconia, els vincles familiars, l'art, les vicissituds de la història i el valor de la memòria.
