Hotel Florida Truth, Love, and Death in the Spanish Civil War【電子書籍】[ Amanda Vaill ]
＜p＞＜strong＞A spellbinding story of love amid the devastation of the Spanish Civil War＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Madrid, 1936. In a city blasted by a civil war that many fear will cross borders and engulf Europeーa conflict one writer will call "the decisive thing of the century"ーsix people meet and find their lives changed forever. Ernest Hemingway, his career stalled, his marriage sour, hopes that this war will give him fresh material and new romance; Martha Gellhorn, an ambitious novice journalist hungry for love and experience, thinks she will find both with Hemingway in Spain. Robert Capa and Gerda Taro, idealistic young photographers based in Paris, want to capture history in the making and are inventing modern photojournalism in the process. And Arturo Barea, chief of the Spanish government's foreign press office, and Ilsa Kulcsar, his Austrian deputy, are struggling to balance truth-telling with loyalty to their sometimes compromised causeーa struggle that places both of them in peril.＜br /＞ Beginning with the cloak-and-dagger plot that precipitated the first gunshots of the war and moving forward month by month to the end of the conflict. ＜em＞Hotel Florida＜/em＞ traces the tangled and disparate wartime destinies of these three couples against the backdrop of a critical moment in history: a moment that called forth both the best and the worst of those caught up in it. In this noir landscape of spies, soldiers, revolutionaries, and artists, the shadow line between truth and falsehood sometimes became faint indeedーyour friend could be your enemy and honesty could get you (or someone else) killed.＜br /＞ Years later, Hemingway would say, "It is very dangerous to write the truth in war, and the truth is very dangerous to come by." In ＜em＞Hotel Florida,＜/em＞ from the raw material of unpublished letters and diaries, official documents, and recovered reels of film, the celebrated biographer Amanda Vaill has created a narrative of love and reinvention that is, finally, a story about truth: finding it, telling it, and living itーwhatever the cost.＜/p＞ ＜p＞*INCLUDES 16 PAGES OF BLACK-AND-WHITE PHOTOGRAPHS＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
