«Anita» is the historical novel by Alicia Dujovne Ortiz, published by Grasset & Fasquelle in paperback (318 pages, in French).
In 1839, José Garibaldi, condemned to death in Italy, is in South America and joins the farrapos in Brazil. As a corsair, he returns victorious to Laguna and meets Anita, who follows him in naval battles. The novel inverts the point of view: it narrates love and adventure from Anita's perspective, a warrior eclipsed by the legend of the red shirt.
The novel, originally written in Spanish, was published in this French translation signed by Nelly Lhermillier.
For readers of historical and biographical fiction interested in the figure of Anita Garibaldi and the history of women in war.
Alicia Dujovne Ortiz is an Argentine journalist and author.
