Delve into the profound, moving portrayal of Anne as a bright, charming, and<br>difficult teenager-and as the gifted writer she was destined to become. A discussion follows the screening with the film's lead<br>actress, Ellie Kendrick; award-winning performer Whoopi Goldberg; MASTERPIECE executive producer Rebecca Eaton, and author Francine<br>Prose, whose new work, Anne Frank: The Book, the Life, the Afterlife), was published last September. The Diary of Anne Frank airs on<br>MASTERPIECE on PBS on Sunday, April 11, 2010, Holocaust Remembrance Day.<p>PANELISTS<p>Ellie Kendrick's performance as Anne Frank was acclaimed by The Guardian ("She doesn't just play Anne Frank, she becomes Anne<br>Frank.")

She has long been fascinated with<br>Anne Frank's story, and has been active for decades on the issue of genocide around the world. <p>Francine Prose marvels in The Diary of Anne Frank: The Book, The Life, The Afterlife that "one of the greatest books about the Nazi<br>genocide should have been written by a girl between the ages of thirteen and fifteen."

Organized by Three Percent at the University of Rochester, the Best<br>Translated Book Award is the only prize of its kind to honor the best original works of international literature and poetry<br>published in the U.S. over the past year. This year the awards ceremony was hosted by Manhattan independent bookstore Idlewild<br>Books.<p>"We're delighted to receive this award on behalf of the author, Gail Hareven," said co-publisher Dennis Loy Johnson, "as it<br>represents what we see as part of our mission at Melville House: Not just to publish both fiction and nonfiction in translation for<br>the sake of essentially preserving it, as if it were something on the verge of going extinct. That strikes us as a way of further<br>ensuring its obscurity. Rather, we see it as our mission to trumpet that work loudly, and to work aggressively to get that work in<br>the hands of as many people as possible, especially those who would not normally encounter translated literature."<p>The Confessions of Noa Weber is the story of a woman who leads a successful "feminist" life: she has a strong career, a wonderful<br>daughter she raised alone, and she is a recognized and respected author. Yet her interior life is bound by her obsessive love for<br>one man--Alek, a Russian émigré and the father of her child, who has drifted in and out of her life. Trying to understand-as well as<br>free herself from-this lifelong obsession, Noa turns her pen on herself, and with relentless honesty dissects her life. Against the<br>evocative setting of turbulent, modernday Israel, this examination becomes a quest to transform irrational desire into a greater,<br>transcendent understanding of love.<p>The fiction judges this year were Monica Carter (Skylight Books and Salonica), Scott Esposito (Conversational Reading and Center for<br>the Art of Translation), Susan Harris (Words Without Borders), translator Annie Janusch, Brandon Kennedy (Spoonbill & Sugartown<br>bookstore), Bill Marx (PRI's The World: World Books), Michael Orthofer (Complete Review), Chad W. Post (Open Letter and Three<br>Percent) and Jeff Waxman (Seminary Co-Op and The Front Table).<p>For more information about The Confessions of Noa Weber, visit Melville House Books online.
