Beneath a Scarlet Sky by Mark T. SullivanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
One man's life and experiences in Milan during the last two year's of Nazi occupation of Italy. From guiding Jews through the Alps to safety in Switzerland to becoming a spy as driver for a high_ranking Nazi General , Pino's life was one of danger and excitement. Loss of loved ones, especially Anna, memories of Nazi inhumanity, the unjust treatment of the man he served all contributed to a postwar crises of faith_in God, in humanity, in the future. In time,by moving on and blocking the memories,Pink was able to live a life of happiness and accomplishment. By the time this book was written he was 90years old,living in the Italian Alps and most of the other players in the tale had died.
