Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. De la aclamada autora de exitos del New York Times, Heather Morris y del best seller El tatuador de Auschwitz, llega una inspiradora historia de hermandad y supervivencia, basada en hechos reales. El 14 de febrero de 1942, el Vyner Brooke, un barco mercante que transportaba a un grupo de expatriados que huian desesperados de Singapur, fue hundido por bombarderos japoneses. Aunque muchos de los pasajeros se ahogaron al instante, Nesta, enfermera australiana, y Norah, musica inglesa, sobrevivieron milagrosamente y llegaron a las playas de la isla de Banka, entonces controlada por los japoneses. De inmediato fueron tomadas como prisioneras de guerra y separadas de los hombres. Norah no estaba segura del destino de su marido, John.Durante casi cuatro anos, Norah y Nesta lucharon por sobrevivir. Trasladadas de un campamento a otro, finalmente se establecieron en el infame campo de prisioneros de Palembang, en lo profundo de la jungla de Sumatra. Alli, las mujeres y los ninos se enfrentaron a la enfermedad, el hambre y la impensable brutalidad infligida por los soldados japoneses: menos de la mitad de los reclusos del campo vivieron para ver a los japoneses derrotados. Sin embargo, estas mujeres encontraron, en si mismas y juntas, un coraje y un ingenio extraordinarios.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONFrom the acclaimed New York Times bestselling author, Heather Morris, and the bestseller The Tattooist of Auschwitz, comes an inspiring story of sisterhood and survival, based on true events.On February 14, 1942, the Vyner Brooke, a merchant ship carrying a group of expatriates desperately fleeing Singapore, was sunk by Japanese bombers. While many passengers drowned instantly, Australian nurse Nesta and English musician Norah miraculously survived and reached the shores of Banka Island, which was then under Japanese control. They were immediately taken as prisoners of war and separated from the men. Norah was unsure of her husband John's fate.For nearly four years, Norah and Nesta fought to survive. They were moved from camp to camp, eventually ending up at the infamous Palembang prisoner-of-war camp deep in the Sumatran jungle. There, women and children faced disease, starvation, and unimaginable brutality at the hands of the Japanese soldiers: fewer than half of the camp's inmates lived to see the Japanese defeated. Nevertheless, these women found extraordinary courage and ingenuity within themselves and together.
