À la guerre comme à la guerre: dessins et souvenirs d'enfance (Medium)
Par Tomi Ungerer. 2002
"Tomi Ungerer est Alsacien, comme vous-mêmes êtes Breton, Parisien, Basque, Ch'timi ou Berrichon. Ça paraît simple, et pourtant c'est très…
compliqué. Car après la guerre de 1870, l'Alsace a été annexée par l'Allemagne. Après la victoire de 1918, elle est redevenue française. Mais suite à la débâcle de 1940, elle est redevenue allemande. Et en 1945, française à nouveau. Tomi a huit ans quand la Seconde Guerre mondiale éclate. Du jour au lendemain, il doit changer de nom, parler allemand, écrire en gothique, faire un dessin raciste pour son premier devoir nazi. Il obéit, il s'adapte. Il devient un caméléon : Français sous son toit, Allemand à l'école, Alsacien avec les copains. Heureux, quoi qu'il arrive. À la maison, sa mère, fantasque, chaleureuse et rusée, veille. Elle l'encourage à dessiner et à écrire, à rire et à faire rire, à déployer tous ses talents. Toute sa vie, elle a conservé les cahiers, les croquis, les devoirs, le journal intime de son fils, les affiches de l'époque. Ce sont ces archives incomparables qui ponctuent et réveillent les souvenirs de guerre de Tomi Ungerer. " -- 4e de couvLe tatoueur dAuschwitz
