A Crowd Is Not Company

Autor Robert Kee
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 feb 2009
Journalist and broadcaster Robert Kee was an RAF bomber pilot in the Second World War. When his plane was shot down over Nazi-occupied Holland, he was captured and spent three years and three months in a German POW camp.

From the beginning he was intent on escape. After several false starts, he finally made it.

First published in 1947 as a novel, but now revealed to be an autobiography, A Crowd Is Not Company recounts Kee's experiences as a prisoner of war and describes in compelling detail his desperate journey across Poland - a journey that meant running the gauntlet of Nazism.

Recenzii

Arguably the best POW book ever written
A wonderfully impartial, unjudging account of the way feelings and imagination are shrunk and benumbed in a cramped and crowded world
Certain pages of this book, especially those about being questioned while on the run, still make my blood run cold . . . Dozens of accurate and perceptive images stop one in one's tracks
His depiction of frightened, desperate men grappling for hope is touching and thought-provokling
Robert Kee went on to have a distinguished career as a writer and in television, but this marvellous memoir may well be his finest acheivement.
