About the author
Anna German
1 book1 followerAnna Viktoria German (February 14, 1936 – August 26, 1982) was a popular Soviet-born Polish-Russian singer of German/Dutch origin.
Anna German was born in Urgench, a city with a 22-thousand population and a rich history of Middle Asia in northwestern Uzbek SSR, USSR. Her mother, Irma Martens, was the descendent of Plautdietsch-speaking Mennonites invited to Russia by Catherine II. Her father, Eugeniusz Hörmann, was an accountant of German descent, born in Łódź, Poland. In 1937 he was executed by the NKVD in Urgench on the charges of spying. Thereafter, Anna and her mother were deported to Kyrgyz SSR.
In 1946 she with her mother, who married a Polish Army officer, settled in Nowa Ruda, before moving to Wrocław in 1949.
Anna graduated from the Geological Institute of Wroclaw University. During her university years, she began her music career at the Kalambur theater. Anna finally became successful when she won the 1964 II Festival of Polish Songs in Opole with her song Tańczące Eurydyki. One year later, she placed first in the international song contest in Sopot. She was invited to perform in Italy in the prestigious Sanremo Music Festival in 1967. In Italy Anna German survived a hard car crash, and fully came back to the stage only in 1972, after a long rehabilitation period.
On March 23, 1972, she married Zbigniew Tucholski. On November 27, 1975 their son, Zbigniew, was born.
Anna performed in the Marché international de l'édition musicale in Cannes, as well as on the stages of Belgium, Germany, USA, Canada and Australia. In the last years of her life she composed some church songs. She died in 1982 from bone cancer and was buried in Warsaw.
Anna German was immensely popular in Poland and in the Soviet Union. She released over a dozen music albums with songs in Polish, as well as several albums with Russian repertoire. She also sang in English, Italian, Spanish, Latin, and German. In 2001 six of her Polish albums were reprinted on CDs. In recent years many compilation albums of her songs have also been released in both Russia and Poland.

Choć nie słucham zbytnio piosenek Anny German, jej życiorys wydaje mi się bardzo ciekawy, dlatego ten tytuł bardzo mnie zaintrygował, zwłaszcza, że to książka napisana przez nią samą!
Sama Anna wydaje się być bardzo sympatyczną i wrażliwą osobą, o swoim pobycie we Włoszech i o życiu opowiada w interesujący sposób. Osobiście naprawdę się z nią utożsamiam i ubolewam nad jej późniejszym losem...

Książka - w formie przypomina pamiętnik, autorka ciekawie opisuje swoje pobyty we Włoszech, czytałam z przyjemnością, jak również z przyjemnością lubię słuchać jej piosenek.
