Both parents perished in concentration camps. Anna's first husband was Jakub Rajs, with whom she spent a year in Belgium before they both returned to wartime Poland to join the Polish underground. Jakub was killed, while Anna was captured and sent to the political prison of Plock, where she remained until the country was liberated in March 1945. In 1946 she moved to France, where she taught mathematics at a Jewish orphanage near Paris until 1947. In January 1948 she married Aron Langfus (b. Prague, 1911-1995); After taking a course that encouraged her to write for the theater, Langfus began writing in French in the 1950s; her first play Les Lepreux (The Lepers), written in 1952, was performed in 1956, but never published. Langfus's novels all deal with the experience of war, destruction and loss after the Holocaust, weaving autobiographical material with fiction.) <https://jwa.org/encyclopedia/article/langfus-anna> Wikipedia, December 19, 2018 (Anna Langfus (born Anna-Regina Szternfinkiel in Lublin on 2 January 1920; died 12 May 1966 in Paris); Polish/French author) |
