Season in Purgatory by Thomas Keneally

During World War II, David Pelham, a young British surgeon, parachutes into Yugoslavia and sets up a hospital to aid Tito's army. There he meets--and loves--the fiery Moja Javich, a resourceful partisan. Their love gives Pelham the strength to endure the atrocities of war as he seeks to avoid capture. Keneally has vigorously fleshed out "a bloody good novel" (Washington Post).

Thomas Keneally is a novelist, playwright, and nonfiction author best known for his book Schindler's Ark, which was made into the film Schindler's List. The Penguin Lives biography of Abraham Lincoln, American Scoundrel: The Biography of the Notorious Civil War General Dan Sickles, and A Commonwealth of Thieves: The Improbable Origins of Australia are among his other works.
