Mary Ann Clark Bremer (New York in 1928 - Geneva in 1996). The daughter of a cosmopolitan family, she spent part of her childhood traveling through North America, England and various Mediterranean countries. Her parents died at the end of World War II in an attack on the ship where they were traveling, in which Mary Ann herself was also wounded. She subsequently lived in Israel (which she left her upset by her politics), Germany, France (where she would frequent André Malraux's circle) and Switzerland. Already in the seventies she began to write her memoirs encouraged by the writer Friedrich Dürrenmatt: she did it in the form of short novels of high lyricism and exceptional sobriety. The dispersion of her work, written in various languages ​​and always published under a pseudonym until recently, turned her into a secret writer who is now finally beginning to achieve the recognition she deserves, and will soon be recovered in different countries of Europe. . In 2012, Periférica began publishing her work and translating it into Spanish.
