The oblique place

Pascual Söderbaum, Caterina, 1962-2018
Books, Manuscripts
'The Oblique Place' is an exceptional journey, an autobiographical novel that probes the ruinous legacies of Fascist Europe in the twentieth century. From a starting point of the discovery of photographs in a family album - of a grandfather who joined Hitler's army, of her Spanish father dressed in the Francoist uniform - Caterina Pascual Söderbaum explores her connections to the most abhorrent passages of twentieth-century history. Her mother was a cousin of Kristina Söderbaum, a celebrated Swedish film star of the Third Reich, adored by Goebbels.
