Synopsis "Hubo una vez una Guerra (in Spanish)"

"Hubo una vez una guerra" constituye uno de los libros más veraces y sinceros que se han escrito nunca sobre la Segunda Guerra Mundial y nos muestra una faceta poco conocida de Steinbeck en su faceta de reportero y articulista. Publicados originalmente en el "New York Herald Tribune" a lo largo de 1943, los textos reunidos por el porpio autor en este libro nos ofrecen una impresionante imagen de la vida coticiana en una Inglaterra sometida a demoledores bombardeos, en un norte de África dominado por la corrupción y en una Italia que las tropas nazis se resisten a abandonar, mientras la población civil intenta tímidamente recuperar la normalidad. Y, al mismo tiempo es un manifiesto de la dureza de las condiciones de trabajo de los corresponsales de guerra y la censura en tiempo de guerra.

John Steinbeck (1902- 1968) was born in Salinas, California. He studied at Stanford University and during his youth worked as a laborer and fruit picker. His first success was Tortilla Flat (1935), a story between picaresque and romantic about Mexican immigrants settled around Monterey (California). In 1936, he wrote a series of seven reports for The San Francisco News, which he later published as The Harvest Gypsies. In 1939, his most famous work appeared: The Grapes of Wrath (Pulitzer Prize 1940), which tells the sad story of a family from the impoverished state of Oklahoma that migrates to California during the economic depression of the thirties; this work, received as a moving document of social protest, was adapted into a film by John Ford in 1940. Among his extensive literary work are also the novels Of Mice and Men (1936), The Pearl (1947) and East of Eden (1962), and screenplays for movies, such as the one he wrote for Viva Zapata! by Elia Kazan. In 1962, Steinbeck received the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Interesante conocer desde una vereda que no es la contada generalmente. Tras bambalinas.
