1950 : Unbezähmbar schlägt das Herz
Unknown publisher
German translation of Indomptable Murcie. Although this book is dedicated to the soul of her father, it is her Spanish roots that Françoise evokes through the story of this woman dispossessed because she was a rebel, who, at the head of her cuadrilla, was killed by the French in front of Saragossa in 1816, during Napoleon’s war of occupation.
In this novel full of love, noise and fury, of which the “Sangre y Fuego” section accounts for half the 550 pages, Françoise perfects her art of vivid description, plunging us into the heart of the action, described with picturesque meticulousness.
