Anna Seghers
Anna Seghers (November 19, 1900 – June 1, 1983) was a German writer who was born in Mainz and died in Berlin. She spent most of her life in East Germany. Although not very well known in the English speaking world, she is still famous in Germany, particularly the East. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Born Netty Reiling in Mainz, 1900, she married Laszlo Radvanyi, a Hungarian Communist in 1925. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ She joined the Communist Party of Germany, in 1928 at the height of its struggle against the burgeoning Nazi party. Her 1932 novel, Die Gef?hrten was a prophetic warning of the dangers of Fascism, which got her arrested by the Gestapo. But perhaps she would have suffered at the hands of the Nazis anyway, since her family background was partly Jewish.
