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.
##A very attractive story that happened on the backstage of WWII. Not sure how much is real history, but great reading experience anyway.

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##别的没啥说的 为啥英文小说就他娘非得英文评价 跟写微博似的两三行 了不得了
评分各种爬山。。。。
评分##整体还可以 剧情算吸引人读下去 但是很多地方简直太抓马了吧 主角简直是开挂好运气人生 好多桥段像作者天马行空想象出来的一样 不敢相信是纪实文学 但作为认真读完的第一本英文小说 值得纪念....
评分##最近读的第一本二战小说 挺好看的!
评分##作者说是根据Pino的人生写得,怎么会那么巧合跟Anna重遇。跟德国军官父子般的相处,太神奇了,难以相信是真的。关于二战的小说真的都挺好看的,在动荡的历史中,每个活下来的人都有不凡的经历,都值得写成故事。
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。
