Sinopse

On April 26, 1937, in the late afternoon of a busy market day in the Basque town of Gernika in northern Spain, theáGerman Luftwaffe began the relentless bombing andámachine-gunning of buildings and villagers. Three-and-a-halfáhours later, the village lay in ruins, its populationádecimated. This act of terror and unspeakable crueltyáoutraged the world and one man in particular, PabloáPicasso. The renowned artist, an expatriate living in Paris,áreacted immediately to the devastation in his homelandáby creating the canvas that would become widely consideredáone of the greatest artworks of the twentiethácentury&mdash,Guernica. Weaving themes of conflict andáredemption, of the horors of war and of the power of artáto transfigure tragedy, Russell Martin follows thisámonumental work from its fevered creation through itsjourney across decades and continents.á"Absorbing . . . PicassoâÇÖs War is a fetching and well-crafted account of Pablo PicassoâÇÖs huge and astounding painting, Guernica."&mdash,Los Angeles Timesá"Refreshingly original . . . Martin is above all a first-rate investigator [who] deftly weaves together world and art history."&mdash,The Boston Globeá"A fascinating and lively read."&mdash,The Denver Post"An engrossing story of a landmark work of art . . . Martin is, first and foremost, a consummate storyteller."á&mdash,Kirkus Reviews
