D-DAY THROUGH FRENCH EYES: NORMANDY 1944
Book ID/图书代码： 13560014B70450
English Summary/英文概要： “Like big black umbrellas, they rain down on the fields across the way, and then disappear behind the black line of the hedges.” Silent parachutes dotting the night sky—that’s how one woman in Normandy in June of 1944 learned that the D-Day invasion was under way. Though they yearned for liberation, the French in Normandy nonetheless had to steel themselves for war, knowing that their homes and land and fellow citizens would have to bear the brunt of the attack. Already battered by years of Nazi occupation, they knew they had one more trial to undergo even as freedom beckoned.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： “像大黑伞，他们倾泻到对面的田野，然后消失在树篱的黑线后面。”沉默的降落伞点缀夜空——这就是诺曼底的一位女性在1944年的6月所了解的，诺曼底登陆正在进行。虽然他们渴望解放， 诺曼底的法国军队仍然不得不为了战争让自身更坚强，他们知道他们的家园和土地，同胞们将不得不承受攻击的冲击。纳粹已经侵占了多年，他们知道有一个试炼在等着，甚至可以向自由招手。(LNL)
Awards/获奖情况：传承了斯特兹•特克尔和《巴黎在燃烧吗？》的伟大文化。玛丽•路易丝•罗伯茨用法国平民的日记和回忆录讲述了诺曼底登陆那日的法国历史，它已经被盟军登陆的神话遮掩太久了。学生首次接近二战历史， 现在将能够超越滩头阵地，深入思考法美的复杂遭遇。对于法国，解放意味着美国英雄——半包装好时巧克力和chouine gomme——也意味着财产的破坏和生命损失，多年的等待战乱终于结束了。从美国到法国观点的转变是一场同情的运动，更新历史的核心。真是一个伟大的想法，真是一本扣人心弦和巧妙的书！
"In the great tradition of Studs Terkel and Is Paris Burning?, Mary Louise Roberts uses the diaries and memoirs of French civilians to narrate a history of the French at D-Day that has for too long been occulted by the mythology of the allied landing. Students approaching WWII history for the first time will now be able to go beyond the beachhead and think deeply about the French-American encounter in all its complexity. For the French, liberation meant American heroes--demigods packing Hershey’s chocolate and chouine gomme--and it also meant the destruction of property and the loss of life, the violent end to years of waiting. The switch of point of view from American to French is an exercise in empathy that renews history at the core. What a great idea and what a gripping and artful book!"
