Die drei Bäume von ANNA SEGHERS (Variationen über Furcht)
Die drei Bäume by ANNA SEGHERS (Variations on Fear)

Summary/Abstract: In 1940, when ANNA SEGHERS and her family tried to flee the part of France occupied by the German Wehrmacht, she wrote Die drei Bäume; three short texts dealing with feelings of fear – that is, the fear of persecution, of lack of leadership, and of alienation. In research into SEGHERS, these short stories have received little attention – unjustifiably so, as the author shows, based on her decades of experience in dealing with the short stories.
