A fairly engrossing historical fiction about World War II from the perspective of Miguel Ruiz, a Spanish Republican who flees Spain at the end of its civil war only to enlist with the Free French army in order to continue the fight against fascists in northern Africa and France. Half of the book is set in the present day with Paco Roca inserting himself into the story as he tracks down and interviews the elderly, grumpy and taciturn Ruiz. It's a nice reminder that the allied forces in Europe and Africa consisted of more than just Americans, the British and the French and a dark reminder of how the Spanish people were left to suffer under the oppression of Francisco Franco at the end of World War II. ( ) Una historia apasionante y olvidada sobre los españoles exiliados que liberaron París de los nazis. A través de los recuerdos de Miguel Ruiz, republicano español exiliado en Francia, Paco Roca reconstruye la historia de La Nueve, una compañía a las órdenes del capitán Dronne integrada en la segunda división blindada del general Leclerc, y formada mayoritariamente por republicanos españoles. Una historia apasionante y olvidada sobre la contribución española en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Using the vivid, yet previously undocumented, memories of Miguel Ruiz, a Spanish veteran exiled in France, award-winning graphic novelist Paco Roca reconstructs World War II through an international lens. Ruiz was a member of "La Nueve," a company of men that went straight from fighting for their homeland in the Spanish Civil War to battles spanning the globe in WWII. Their trek across Europe and Africa was spurred on for years by their love for their country and hate for brutal dictatorships. With threads that seamlessly connect the present and the past, Ruiz's stories that make up Twists of Fate are often filled with both horror and humor, hope and grief, giving those who only know the American side of World War II a brand-new, and often startling, perspective. The artist behind the Eisner-nominated Wrinkles (now a critically acclaimed animated movie on Netflix), Roca returns with a major graphic novel that features his trademark narrative mastery that blends compassion, humanity, and sensitivity. Already winning worldwide awards and being called by one critic "the Spanish Maus," Twists of Fate is much more than one forgotten hero's personal story. It's a necessary and timely look into what we remember and why we forget, a reminder that everyone has a tale to tell. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
