Author: James McBride
Title: Miracle At St. Anna
Description: Hodder Headline Australia 2003 Paperback, 271pp. Based on an unspeakable massacre at the site of St Anna Di Stazzema, a small village in Tuscany and on the experiences of the famed Buffalo soldiers from the 92nd Division in Italy during WWII, MIRACLE AT ST ANNA is a singular evocation of war, cruelty, passion and heroism. It is the story of four American negro soldiers, a band of partisans and an Italian boy who encounter a miracle - though perhaps the true miracle lies in themselves. Traversing class, race and geography, MIRACLE AT ST ANNA is a hymn to the brotherhood of man and the power to do good that lives in each of us. It reveals to us a little-known but fascinating moment in history through the eyes and imagination of a gifted writer. Like his first book THE COLOR OF WATER, James McBride's stunning first novel will change the way we perceive ourselves and the world. (ISBN: 9780733617164). Good.
