allybl 's review for:

Beneath a Scarlet Sky by Mark T. Sullivan

4.0

---

Books about WWII are difficult for me. The stories of death and destruction and the horror of what humans can do to one another are sometimes too terrible to hear. But within this story we meet the unsung hero, Pino Lella and how he manages to endure the losses to war that he experiences. This was a compelling tale of faith, despair, hope and love. The narrator telling the tale and feeling the emotions of this amazing character. A little too long, and I wish it had been edited a bit. But all in all a beautiful, bittersweet tale.
