Reseña del libro "Powers of Fate: A Story of Love and Courage Born Amid the Ruins of War-Torn Italy (en Inglés)"

2020 marks the seventy-fifth anniversary of the end of World War II. As the free world prepares to honor those heros who re-defined history, there is a lesser known, yet remarkable, consequence to the war that has created millions of new families. It is estimated that almost 100,000 young women from across Europe, who came to be known as war brides, met and married American soilders during the course of the war. Powers of Fate is based upon a true story and explores the war bride phenomenon in a vivid and fascinating intimacy. This novel is a love story between a roguish American GI and the beautiful Italian girl that changed his life. But it is much more than just a love story...it's a slice of history...a tale of destiny...two lives from two different worlds, brought together by the random powers of fate. It provides an intimate perspective of World War II from both a soldier's and a victim's point of view. Powers of Fate is a moving story of courage, survival, personal growth and devotion to family. It's about the strength of love and of all the young war brides who discarded everything their lives were made of, for the sake of it. The storyline is a journey back in time to the mid 1930's, with all of the cultural elements of that generation on grand display. Speak easys, elaborate night clubs and seaside trattorias serve as a backdrop where the lives of the main protaginsts are carefully detailed in moments of joy, sorrow and a terror only war is capable of producing. Along the way, the reader meets a growing cast of colorful characters such as loving family, mobsters and endearing wartime friends and strangers.
