Faz hoje dez anos que faleceu Anne Morrow Lindbergh em Vermont, EUA


Anne Morrow Lindbergh nasceu a 22 de junho de 1906, em Englewood, New Jersey, EUA e morreu a 7 de fevereiro de 2001, em Vermont, EUA.
Conheceu o seu marido, o famoso aviador Charles Lindbergh, na cidade do México, para onde ele foi a convite do pai de Anne, Dwight W. Morrow, então embaixador dos Estados Unidos naquele país. Depois do seu casamento em 1929, envolveu-se com a carreira de aviador do marido, acompanhando-o durante os voos de inspeção para a abertura de novas linhas aéreas.
O primeiro filho do casal foi raptado e morto em 1932, uma tragédia que comoveu o mundo. A Justiça condenou o presumível autor do crime à morte,
num julgamento até hoje considerado polémico.
A exposição constante à opinião pública tornou insuportável a vida dos Lindbergh, que deixaram os Estados Unidos e realizaram uma viagem pelo mundo.
O casal esteve também na Alemanha, onde ficou impressionado com os progressos tecnológicos do país governado pelos nacional-socialistas.
Ambos participaram da abertura dos Jogos Olímpicos de 1936 ao lado de
Adolf Hitler, no camarote oficial.
De volta aos Estados Unidos, fixaram residencia no estado de Connecticut.
Aí viveram os últimos 25 anos de vida, criando a família, defendendo causas ambientalistas e escrevendo livros, até à morte de Charles no Havaí, em 27
de agosto de 1974.
Depois de sofrer uma série de ataques nos princípios de 1990, que a deixaram confusa e deficiente, Anne continuou a viver na sua casa em Connecticut com a ajuda permanente de assistentes domiciliários.
Durante uma visita à sua filha mais nova, Reeve, em 1999, Anne apanhou uma pneumonia, depois da qual ela foi viver para perto da filha, numa pequena casa construída na quinta de Reeve em Vermont, onde a Anne morreu em 2001 aos 94 anos de idade.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh é a autora de Presente do Mar, publicado pela primeira vez em 1955 e reeditado em 1975.
Neste livro, ela aborda temas profundamente humanos — amor, casamento, maturidade, solidão, envelhecimento — e compara-os às conchas do mar.
São reflexões que não tocam de perto apenas as mulheres, mas sim, qualquer
leitor atento.
Presente do Mar não foi o único livro que a Anne Morrow Lindbergh escreveu. Falo deste livro, porque o encontrei, por acaso, em português. Embora já tenha lido a tradução alemã, li-o uma vez mais na nossa língua, resolvendo partilhar convosco a leitura deste pequeno texto escrito com grande sensibilidade e sabedoria.

  1. Apenas a conhecia pelo marido e pelo rapto e homicidio do filho.
    Não sabia que tinha escrito um livro, que pela descrição, parece interessante. Vou tentar encontrá-lo.

  2. Estou de acordo com a Redonda: o marido é que era conhecido e a tragédia do rapto do filho do casal também!

    Um escritor não se faz de um só livro, por muito bom que esse livro seja. E não duvido que o seja!

    Quanto a livros estou desiludidíssima, que pedi os "Jogos Perversos" a uma editora à mês e meio e os desgraçados não entregaram livro nenhum, nem sei se não vou ficar a arder com a massa... rsrsrsr

    Beijocas!

    Hello! I know this is kinda off topic

    but I was wondering which blog platform are you
    using for this website? I'm getting fed up of

    Wordpress because I've had issues with hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform. I

    would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

    I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering what all is

    needed to get setup? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost
    a pretty penny? I'm not very

    web savvy so I'm not 100% sure. Any recommendations or advice

    would be greatly appreciated. Kudos

    I do agree with all the ideas you've presented in your post. They are really

    convincing and will certainly work. Still, the posts are very short for novices. Could you please extend them a little from next time? Thanks for the post.

    I would like to express some appreciation to the writer for bailing me out of such a



    setting. After exploring through the

    search engines and meeting

    tips which were not powerful, I thought my entire life was

    over. Being alive without the

    solutions to the difficulties you've

    resolved by means of your

    good post is a serious case, and those that would have in a wrong way

    damaged my career if I hadn't discovered your web blog. Your primary understanding and kindness in maneuvering all the pieces was very helpful.
    I'm not sure what I

    would have done if I hadn't come upon such a step like this.
    I am able to now look forward to my future. Thanks
    so

    much for this reliable and

    result oriented guide. I won't be reluctant to recommend your

    site to anyone who should receive assistance

    about this issue.
