Cinco mujeres singulares cuyas vidas se vieron profundamente marcadas por la guerra civil española. De diferentes nacionalidades, orígenes sociales e ideologías, cuatro de ellas eran valientes, independientes y compasivas; unas enviudarían, otras perderían hijos y otras quedarían profundamente traumatizadas por la contienda; poco de esto se puede aplicar a la quinta, cuya vida también quedó drásticamente marcada por el conflicto bélico, pero de una manera muy distinta de los destinos de las otras cuatro.

Mercedes Sanz-Bachiller, Nan Green, Priscilla Scott-Ellis, Margarita Nelken y Carmen Polo son las cinco protagonistas de esta rigurosa, documentada y conmovedora obra en el que Paul Preston aúna el trabajo detectivesco de la investigación con las historias personales y emotivas de cinco mujeres únicas y relativamente poco conocidas de la historia de España.

Work Description

By examining the lives of four women caught up in the Spanish Civil War of 1936-9, Professor Preston casts a fresh light on the bitter struggle between the Nationalist rebels and the defenders of the legal, democratic Republic, and also on the domestic faction fights that bedevilled each side.
