Sofie Benz: Her short life and death in Ascona
Book presentation and discussion with the author of the book and grandniece of Sofie Benz, Petra Brixel
Sofie Benz's life is closely linked to the names Otto Gross and Leonhard Frank. The role Otto Gross played in her suicide in Ascona in 1911 was the subject of much speculation in the media at the time. Petra Brixel researched family documents and many other sources to trace the life of her great-aunt.
