Krátky popis
In this captivating and lavishly illustrated young adult edition of
her award-winning #1 ",New York Times",bestseller, Laura
Hillenbrand tells the story of a former Olympian's courage,
cunning, and fortitude following his plane crash in enemy
territory. This adaptation of ",Unbroken", introduces a new
generation to one of history's most thrilling survival epics. On a
May afternoon in 1943, an American military plane crashed into the
Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a
slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a
face appeared. It was that of a young lieutenant, the plane s
bombardier, who was struggling to a life raft and pulling himself
aboard. So began one of the most extraordinary sagas of the Second
World War. The lieutenant s name was Louis Zamperini. As a boy, he
had been a clever delinquent, breaking into houses, brawling, and
stealing. As a teenager, he had channeled his defiance into
running, discovering a supreme talent that carried him to the
Berlin Olympics. But when war came, the athlete became an airman,
embarking on a journey that led to his doomed flight, a tiny raft,
and a drift into the unknown. Ahead of Zamperini lay thousands of
miles of open ocean, leaping sharks, a sinking raft, thirst and
starvation, enemy aircraft, and, beyond, a trial even greater.
Driven to the limits of endurance, Zamperini would respond to
desperation with ingenuity, suffering with hope and humor,
brutality with rebellion. His fate, whether triumph or tragedy,
would hang on the fraying wire of his will. Featuring more than one
hundred photographs plus an exclusive interview with Zamperini,
this breathtaking odyssey also captured on film by director
Angelina Jolie is a testament to the strength of the human spirit
and the ability to endure against the unlikeliest of odds.
