Sending this because the story breaks my heart.
Written by poet Rosanna Warren — think shes a Connecticut poet?—

Dont be fooled by title here: according to Warren, Pal Picasso wouldn’t
lift a finger to save his old friend & fellow artist Max Jacob— from French
anti -Jewish hatred: although Jacob was a converted practicing Catholic
when the Nazis got him. Fortunately he died in a “detainment camp” before
being cattle-bussed to Auschwitz.
(Hey Apple Google doesn’t recognize Auschwitz. )
Also a glimpse of systemic racism beyond our guilty shores.

HOWEVER the story is about art translation and poets, as well about our
Parisian between World Wars era:
