This non-fiction account chronicles the chaotic aftermath of the Allied invasion of Italy, presenting a stark portrait of Naples under occupation in 1944. Lewis's keen observations illustrate the resilience and desperation of the Neapolitan people, alongside the often absurd bureaucracy and moral ambiguities of war. The narrative uncovers the complex social dynamics and the struggle for survival in a city grappling with poverty, crime, and the lingering presence of conflict. With a journalist's eye for detail and a novelist's narrative skill, Naples '44 captures the unique spirit of a city and its inhabitants during a pivotal historical moment.
