Shattering a Sacred Silence Through An Examination of What Church Leaders Have Taught About Her
In Mark Sullivan’s novel, Beneath A Scarlet Sky, he describes the difficulty of researching the Nazi occupation of Italy during WWII: “I was also hampered by a kind of collective amnesia concerning Italy and Italians after the war . . .
