SUMMARY:Sarah Rose launches her new book D-Day Girls
DESCRIPTION:In D-Day Girls\, Sarah Rose draws on recently de­classified files\, diaries\, and oral histories to tell the thrilling story of three of these remarkable women. There’s Andrée Borrel\, a scrappy and streetwise Parisian who blew up power lines with the Gestapo hot on her heels; Odette Sansom\, an unhappily married suburban mother who saw the SOE as her ticket out of domestic life and into a meaningful adventure; and Lise de Baissac\, a fiercely independent member of French colonial high society and the SOE’s unflap­pable “queen.” Together\, they destroyed train lines\, ambushed Nazis\, plotted prison breaks\, and gathered crucial intelligence—laying the groundwork for the D-Day invasion that proved to be the turning point in the war.\nRigorously researched and written with razor-sharp wit\, D-Day Girls is an inspiring story for our own moment of resistance: a reminder of what courage—and the energy of politically animated women—can accomplish when the stakes seem incalculably high.
