Her book Le Crime et le Silence, first published in Polish in 2004, won the European Book Prize in 2011. It was published in English in 2015 as The Crime and the Silence: Confronting the Massacre of Jews in Wartime Jedwabne.[1] LifeBikont was born in Warsaw as a daughter of journalist Wilhelmina Skulska (born as Lea Horowitz; 1918–1998), who was Jewish, and writer Andrzej Kruczkowski, who is Catholic. She has a sister, Maria Kruczkowska. Anna Bikont got her MA in Psychology at Warsaw University, and worked there until 1988. Between 1982 and 1989 she was an underground Solidarity activist. She was co-founder and editor of Tygodnik Mazowsze weekly, Poland's largest underground publication.[2] In 1989 Bikont was among the persons founding Gazeta Wyborcza, the first legal newspaper published outside the communist government's control. It became independent of Solidarity in 1990. Bikont has continued to work for the paper as senior journalist.[3] After controversy greeted Jan T. Gross's history of the Jedwabne massacre, The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland (2001), the government commissioned an investigation by prosecutor Radosław Ignatiew for the Institute of National Remembrance (IPN). Bikont began her own journalistic investigation, interviewing numerous people in Jedwabne, including descendants of survivors and persons living in the city when Gross's book was published.[1] Bikont expanded her work into the non-fiction book My z Jedwabnego (2004, Jedwabne: Battlefield of Memory). It was published in French in 2011, under the title, Le crime et le silence. This edition won the European Book Prize.[4] It was published in English in 2015 as The Crime and the Silence: Confronting the Massacre of Jews in Wartime Jedwabne.[1] Writer Julian Barnes, one of the judges of the 2011 European Book Prize, describes her history as "more than a book of memory. It is also a book about forgetting, about the pollution of memory, about the conflict between the easy, convenient truth and the awkward, harder truth. It is a work that grows from its journalistic manner and origins into the powerful writing of necessary history."[1] Her husband, journalist and director Piotr Bikont (1955–2017), died in a car accident.
