{"product_id":"crimes-of-war-neil-rolde-9781882190409","title":"Crimes of War","description":"This novel is based on the massacre by the SS of a small town in France during World War II, called Oradour-sur-Glane. Some of the perpetrators were French citizens - Alsatians drafted into the SS. They were put on trial in 1953 for taking part - under duress, it was claimed - in the horrendous killings and destruction of that peaceful village. Upon the order of President Charles de Gaulle, the town was kept as the Nazis had left it and is a national monument. Professor Eugène Desfosseux, a historian and self-taught ventriloquist, conjures amid the ruins figures from deep into his past and records the interviews and interrogations in a tale that epitomizes what this or any other war crime might encompass - including his own daily life of pleasures, romance and memories inflamed to a vengeance that would destroy his life's work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Neil Rolde\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1882190408\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781882190409\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polar Bear \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.70d","brand":"Neil Rolde","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48217570410751,"sku":"9781882190409","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fb3a1d09-0e26-4dac-8155-7eea086964d3.jpg?v=1771998071","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/crimes-of-war-neil-rolde-9781882190409","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
