In Love and War is a true story of love, betrayal and courage, with echoes of Louis de Berniere's Captain Corelli's Mandolin. It is a fascinating portrait of occupied Rome, complete with photos and original wartime documents. In a letter to her parents, written in Rome in the summer of 1944, Maria Corelli tells of her life on the run in Italy during the Second World War. As the Germans approach, she and her husband risk their lives to follow their friend, a Jewish musician, into hiding in the mountains, only to find their own relationship broken apart. Small crease on back cover. 156 pages.
