The Correspondents: Six Women Writers on the Front Lines of World War II Free Audiobook Download by Judith Mackrell

In this collection of essays, six female poets and journalists share their experiences while they were writing during World War II. Judith Mackrell is the editor and author of the book. She interviewed each woman who contributed to this compilation. Many of the women live in Italy or France, which allowed them to escape from the war, but some of them continued to work on-the-ground for other causes in the battle against fascism.

Six female writers from Europe and the United States, who were not yet 30 years old at the time World War II began, provide a personal perspective on what it was like to live through their time. Their narratives cover their feelings of fear and losses experienced in the war as well as their memories of long-ago visits to their homelands before they were forced underground.

The Correspondents: Six Women Writers on the Front Lines of World War II is a gripping, detailed exploration of six female correspondents. The book delves into letters and articles written during the Second World War as well as personal accounts from the women themselves.

One of the most powerful ways to promote peace is through communications. The correspondents, as they're often called, represent the world's best-known white women on the front lines for a variety of nations in World War Two. It was hard work reporting from these countries and their voices were often censored or silenced by their own governments.

Six women writers on the front lines of World War II, reflecting on their roles and experiences of the war's effects on women.

This audiobook is a collection of six individual stories, each narrated by an author of some renown. These women who were still in their twenties when the war began found themselves on the frontlines that shaped the world we live in today. They were all journalists and had to find ways to write about stories without breaking through the censor's restrictions. For example, Vittore Grigore was one of many Italian newspaper reporters who had to cover the war from as close as possible and yet ensure he didn't upset any German censors who would be suspicious of Italian propaganda.
