(Sydney Taylor Notable Young Adult) ( ) This information was so important I wish it had been written in a clearer way. I know that it was very difficult to sort through the research and the interviews, but so many of the details and the names were confusing.

HTML: One of the most important stories of World War II, already optioned by Steven Spielberg for a major motion picture: a spectacular, searing history that brings to light the extraordinary accomplishments of brave Jewish women who became resistance fightersâ??a group of unknown heroes whose exploits have never been chronicled in full, until now. Yet the exploits of these courageous resistance fighters have remained virtually unknown. As propulsive and thrilling as Hidden Figures, In the Garden of Beasts, Band of Brothers, and A Train in Winter, The Light of Days at last tells the true story of these incredible women whose courageous yet little-known feats have been eclipsed by time. Judy Batalionâ??the granddaughter of Polish Holocaust survivorsâ??takes us back to 1939 and introduces us to Renia Kukielka, a weapons smuggler and messenger who risked death traveling across occupied Poland on foot and by train. Joining Renia are other women who served as couriers, armed fighters, intelligence agents, and saboteurs, all who put their lives in mortal danger to carry out their missions. Batalion follows these women through the savage destruction of the ghettos, arrest and internment in Gestapo prisons and concentration camps, and for a lucky fewâ??like Renia, who orchestrated her own audacious escape from a brutal Nazi jailâ??into the late 20th century and beyond. Powerful and inspiring, The Light of Days is an unforgettable true tale of war, the fight for freedom, exceptional bravery, female friendship, and survival in the face of stagge Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
