In 1915 celebrated civil engineer Giuseppe Colombo settled with his wife and children in the small fishing town of Pozzuoli, several miles west of Naples. The lives of the Colombo family members over the next three decades are played out against the backdrop of Italy’s Fascist era and World War II. The narrative soon focuses on the life of Giuseppe’s granddaughter Dina, for whom the war brings hardship and trauma, but also romance and adventure. Dina’s account of this period of the Colombo family’s history is retold by her daughter Gillian Parkes.

I was riveted by Gillian's re-telling of her mother's story in wartime Italy. This is not just a personal story but also an extremely well researched historical account that tells us so much about Italy at that time.Product details
