Untitled[edit]

Barbara Turnbull (born Gisela Rusznyak) was a close friend of Annemarie's in Vienna. They corresponded periodically until Annemarie's passing. Barbara, now 96 lives with her son in Brisbane Australia.

"Her last work Désirée (1951) was about Désirée Clary, one of Napoleon's lovers and, later, a queen of Sweden."

Oh for Heaven's Sake! Did anybody who wrote that tripe actually READ the book? She wasn't "one of Napoleon's [many sluttish] lovers", she was his fiancée and as she came from a respectable upper middle class family very likely not his "lover". And she wasn't just "a queen of Sweden", i.e. just one of many, she was the matririarch, the founding mother, of the Bernadotte dynasty, which is still in situ in Sweden.

Dear God, let rain some brain down!

Jewish?[edit]

There seems no doubt (otherwise why was she running from the Germans and her sister killed by them?) - but a good reference would be nice. Also good would be information on that sister Liselotte Röder. Snori (talk) 21:39, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Strange chronology[edit]

Any explanation for a 1941 novel being made into a film in 1939? Things like this are known to happen but not very often, so it might warrant a comment. --Ehitaja (talk) 22:15, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
