A short summary of Beneath a Scarlet Sky:
The secrets and sacrifices of Pino Lella's WWII service.
My favorite Pino Lella quote from the book:
"Life is change, constant change, and unless we are lucky enough to find comedy in it, change is nearly always a drama, if not a tragedy."
Questions to ponder while reading Beneath a Scarlet Sky:
What type of "service to one's enemies" is appropriate during a war?
How should one treat one's enemies?
My review of the book:
A totally engrossing story that was based upon true events.
A look into the often-overlooked WWII Italian Front.
I wish the knowledge of the Catholic Underground was more widespread.
