A fairly engrossing historical fiction about World War II from the perspective of Miguel Ruiz, a Spanish Republican who flees Spain at the end of its civil war only to enlist with the Free French army in order to continue the fight against fascists in northern Africa and France. Half of the book is set in the present day with Paco Roca inserting himself into the story as he tracks down and interviews the elderly, grumpy and taciturn Ruiz. It's a nice reminder that the allied forces in Europe and Africa consisted of more than just Americans, the British and the French and a dark reminder of how the Spanish people were left to suffer under the oppression of Francisco Franco at the end of World War II. ( ) Una historia apasionante y olvidada sobre los españoles exiliados que liberaron París de los nazis. A través de los recuerdos de Miguel Ruiz, republicano español exiliado en Francia, Paco Roca reconstruye la historia de La Nueve, una compañía a las órdenes del capitán Dronne integrada en la segunda división blindada del general Leclerc, y formada mayoritariamente por republicanos españoles. Una historia apasionante y olvidada sobre la contribución española en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Eisner-award winner Paco Roca reconstructs World War II through the memories of Miguel Ruiz, a member of 'La Nueve,' a company of men that went from fighting against the Franco regime in the Spanish Civil War to battles across Europe and Africa, spurred on by their patriotism and hate for brutal dictatorships. Ruiz's stories are filled with horror and humor but Twists of Fate is much more than a forgotten hero's personal story. It's a timely look into what we remember and why we forget, a reminder that everyone has a tale to tell, and an ode to a generation that stood up to, and beat back, violent fascism.
