It has been Sylvie Germain's most commercially successful novel in France. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMagnus is a man searching for his own identity, who pieces together the complex puzzle of his life, which turns out to be closer to a painting by Edward Munch than the romantic tale of family heroism and self-sacrifice on which he was nurtured by the woman he believed was his mother. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Magnus, Sylvie Germain uses imagination and intuition to unlock the enigma of human life and confer on history the power of myth and fable. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMagnus won the Goncourt Lyceen Prize, selected by French High School Students as the best novel of the year from the main Goncourt Prize Shortlist. It is a short and profound novel suitable for 16-year-olds upwards and is a good starting point for exploration of the Holocaust.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dedalus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/25\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781903517628\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.83h x 5.00w x 0.56d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2008 pg. 42\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Sylvie Germain","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43544198086837,"sku":"9781903517628","price":13.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_1ee18c5a-edc5-4fce-9090-32a9e1d973ad.jpg?v=1706119812","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/magnus-9781903517628","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
