Reseña del libro "liberation (en Inglés)"

"Deeply moving. . . . Joanna Scott brilliantly captures war as seen through the innocence of a child." -BookpageAdriana Nardi is only 10 years old when Allied forces occupy her lush island home during World War II, plaguing the quiet Italian village with violence and uncertainty. Amdu is a Senegalese soldier who abandons his comrades and befriends Adriana after witnessing an unspeakable act that has far-reaching repercussions.Decades later, on a commuter train bound for Penn Station, 60-year-old Adriana revisits her memories of the war and her doomed relationship with Amdu, even as a present crisis threatens her life."A prismatic and quietly powerful look at war. . . . Scott pulls off kaleidoscopic shifts of observation with a depth of vision possessed by great writers." -Los Angeles Times Book Review"Beautifully realized, exquisitely constructed, and fascinating. . . . A calming and beautiful book to read for consolation, in these dingy times." -Washington Post Book World"It may be about World War II, but this book is as timely as can be." -Marie Claire"Scott's voice remains one of contemporary fiction's most eloquent and essential." -Kirkus Reviews
