Based on the true story of a forgotten hero, Beneath a Scarlet Sky is the triumphant, epic tale of one young man’s incredible courage and resilience during one of history’s darkest hours.
Pino Lella wants nothing to do with the war or the Nazis. He’s a normal Italian teenager—obsessed with music, food, and girls—but his days of innocence are numbered. When his family home in Milan is destroyed by Allied bombs, Pino joins an underground railroad helping Jews escape over the Alps, and falls for Anna, a beautiful widow six years his senior.
In an attempt to protect him, Pino’s parents force him to enlist as a German soldier—a move they think will keep him out of combat. But after Pino is injured, he is recruited at the tender age of eighteen to become the personal driver for Adolf Hitler’s left hand in Italy, General Hans Leyers, one of the Third Reich’s most mysterious and powerful commanders.
Now, with the opportunity to spy for the Allies inside the German High Command, Pino endures the horrors of the war and the Nazi occupation by fighting in secret, his courage bolstered by his love for Anna and for the life he dreams they will one day share.
Fans of All the Light We Cannot See, The Nightingale, and Unbroken will enjoy this riveting saga of history, suspense, and love.
##真人真事改编,经历传奇到不可思议。上午刚刚嘲讽书里德国将军单纯,谍战小儿科,晚上看完就打脸,主角和将军永远分别前最后一句话反转了整个故事,唏嘘不已
评分##很棒的故事,语言上选词也讲究,再艰难的时局,也要演奏着音乐唱着歌,心里怀有希望。
评分##这两年二战题材很火,但是就还好。
评分##没怎么注意写作,故事本身还不错。
评分##二流小说。我发现他们对二战小说的评分明显有inflation, Goodread上面居然有4.42的评分。整部小说没有什么climax,可能是囿于是真实故事改编的。作者的文笔真的很烂,都是些纸片人。
评分##最近读的第一本二战小说 挺好看的!
评分##人生无常。如果全是真的,那么karma这种东西恐怕不存在吧。
评分##We don't have many stories told about WWII from the Italians. This one is beautifully told and encouraging.
评分##前后写的比较好,中间Pino做间谍的部分着墨很少,他究竟贡献了什么了不起的情报?为什么拿到手提箱钥匙之后一直没有打开?Pino的个性倒一直挺统一的,只能在背后搞反动,当面起冲突时总是懦弱。General Leyer究竟是什么身份,为什么会知道Pino代号呢?可能这就是纪实文学吧。
