Nan Soti nan Syèl la: Ewois ak Renesans nan Ewòp Nazi, Matti Friedman unravels one of the strangest stories from World War II: A team of young women and men who escaped the Holocaust, then made the inconceivable decision to parachute back into Nazi-occupied Europe. Using thousands of original documents, Friedman follows four of the parachutists from the spring of 1944 to the operation’s dramatic end. Few understand the history of the Middle East, and even fewer understand its cosmopolitanism, complexity, and interconnectedness. In Kalodron an: Kreyasyon Mwayen Oryan Modèn nan, istoryen Simon Sebag Montefiore offers a comprehensive and nuanced account spanning from the Ottoman sultanate to the Trump presidency. It paints a dazzling panorama of faith and fanaticism, creativity and tolerance, dictatorship and democracy.
