More than her legacy, Brigitte Bardot offers us her Testament. Her Animal Testament.
~“Animals have saved me, but to what extent do I save them”? In the twilight
of her life, Brigitte Bardot sheds A Warrior’s Tears and muses about the work

~“Animals have saved me, but to what extent do I save them”? In the twilight
of her life, Brigitte Bardot sheds A Warrior’s Tears and muses about the work
she has been doing over the past 44 years. This sharing, love and respect,
this reciprocity of consideration between humans and animals has been the
wellspring of Brigitte Bardot’s energy in standing up to seal hunting on the ice
floes, the inhumanity of animal shelters and the cruelty of slaughterhouses,
animal testing and traditions that exploit animals to death.
In this book, the icon of animal protection reveals herself like never before
through reflections on nature and the human beings’ place in it. Untamed,
instinctive, free and moving, Brigitte Bardot looks back over her life as a
star, her daily life in contact with her animal companions and both her own,
personal battles, and her foundation’s.
For the first time in her life, B.B. explores her animal side, which is both
cuddly and fierce, and which explains so many of the choices, inspirations
and rebellions that have studded her life.
Page by page, through the Warrior’s Tears that the “Lady of Madrague”
sheds with restraint, a subtle portrait emerges, showing Brigitte Bardot in a
new light. Because “the infinite world of mute pain,” is also hers; the world
of a fighter, who poured every bit of strength she had into demanding we
show greater benevolence towards animals.
At age 83, Brigitte Bardot delivers a message for the Future, about the
pugnaciousness needed to fight long-term battles and about the risk of
losing our humanity if we don’t have greater brotherhood between living
beings.
