Vanina explores universal themes with great sensitivity, while offering a hard-hitting reflection on the human condition and contemporary challenges. Through these interwoven narratives, the novel offers a veritable autopsy of our societies, questioning notions of resilience, identity and the quest for meaning. Her work reflects her deep understanding of human connections and cultural dynamics. - Claude Koehl, a trailblazer in intercultural communication, will discuss her book The American Way of Life: The Foreigners’ Perspective. Drawing on over 20 years of experience, Claude founded Intercultural Services in 1994 to enhance cross-cultural leadership and communication skills, aiding global employees in navigating cultural differences and adapting to new environments. Her book reflects her personal journey and professional insights, offering a unique perspective on life in a new country.

Inspired by family documents discovered after her mother’s passing in 2017, the memoir delves into her great-grandfather’s journal detailing the German advance in Le Grand Est (Alsace/Lorraine) in 1940, and her great-grandmother’s notebooks containing 65 heirloom recipes. The story unfolds in Nancy and "Châlons-en-Champagne," blending the cuisine bourgeoise of her Ashkenazi ancestors with poignant family history.
