Hannaford-Rambonnet: ‘Kiotské, Kére, Naoré
Actually not
belonging to the Anita Rambonnet Series, but quite related to it, is this abridged
autobiography by Anita Rambonnet’s daughter. She gives an account of her impressions and
experiences, during the 1925-1946 years, in
Soekaboemi and Buitenzorg (where her father in both towns was the mayor), and
in Batavia, where she and her parents were interned by the Japanese occupiers in 1942.
She pays special attention to this first year of Japanese rule, when her parents were severely
interrogated by the Japanese
military police because of supposed espionage. Her brother was interned in
Hiroshima in Japan.
