Gerda Tarot: Double Exposition. Yanechka Kh.

On August 1, 1937, Paris said goodbye to Gerda Taro, an anti-fascist, the first woman-recipher who died in the Spanish Civil War. That day she was supposed to be 27 years old.

Gerda Tarot is the main nerve of the novel-kaleidoscope. Willy Chardak, Ruth Seli and Georg Kuritzkes recall what she was: unstable, elusive, selfless; Sincere, generous, brave. A series of historical persons and events of the 1930s era, which incorporated economic depression, Nazism, xenophobia, the war of ideologies and ideals, cultural fermentation, the struggle for justice and the best world and, of course, the incredible take-off of reporting photography, is taking place. p>
