    About this product

    Product Information

    Norman Lewis arrives in war-torn Naples as an intelligence officer in 1944. The starving population has devoured all the tropical fish in the aquarium, respectable women have been driven to prostitution and the black market is king. Lewis finds little to admire in his fellow soldiers, but gains sustenance from the extraordinary vivacity of the Italians. There is the lawyer who earns his living bringing a touch of Roman class to funerals, the gynaecologist who specializes in the restoration of lost virginity and the widowed housewife who times her British lover against the clock. Were I given the chance to be born again, writes Lewis, Italy would be the country of my choice.

    • With an obvious fondness for the Italian people the author writes in detail and sometimes with humour of the characters he meets .

      An insight into the work of a Field Police operative during the later stages of World War II and Naples in particular . I found the book very interesting because this part of the British Army was new to me .

    • Gives you a proper sense of the time and place and the author

      Utterly compelling account of Naples why the Allies invaded Southern Italy. Lewis was a very great writer.

    • Well written and informative.

      This is a very well written account of the financial, physical and moral destruction that follows any major war. Desperate people doing desperate things to stay alive. Not an easy but certainly a valuable read.

    • The terrible human race

      Reading only non fiction I believed I had read most of the tragic experiences of human beings. It revealed the great flaws in so called responsible beings when outside the surveillance of ' normal people' who would place a moral restraint on a terrible impulse.
