En savoir plus sur le livre

This 1941 memoir of life on the frontline of wartime Europe by a trailblazing female war reporter is a dazzling rediscovered classic. As a pioneering female correspondent, she reported from Europe from the 1930s into the Second World War, watching the lights in the death-chamber go out one by one from the frontline - always in the right place at the right time. Flinging off her heels under shellfire; meeting Hitler ('an inconspicuous little man') and the 'dapper' Mussolini; gossiping with Churchill by his goldfish pond or dancing in the bomb-blasted Ritz; reading The Intelligent Woman's Guide to Socialism on a Soviet train or eating reindeer with guerrilla skiers
