520 1 $a""Underneath the lantern, by the barracks gate. ..." Beginning with those words, the German love song "Lili Marlene" rose out of obscurity to become the unlikely anthem of World War II. While its gentle melody captured the hearts of both the Axis and the Allied soldiers fighting across North Africa and Europe, the success of "Lili Marlene" brought fame and attention to its three creators-artists who found themselves torn between their personal and political obligations in the paranoid culture of Nazi Germany." "In 1941, a chance broadcast of the song on a German army radio station made "Lili Marlene" an instant favorite with the Axis troops. British soldiers tuning into the enemy broadcasts eventually adopted the song as their own, and within months "Lili Marlene" had become the universal soundtrack of a world at war." "Lili Marlene not only traces the history of this special song but also explores the choices made by the artists who gave it its life. Hans Leip, the song's lyricist, couldn't bear the Nazis and disappeared into rural Germany; Norbert Schultze, its composer, wrote marches for Hitler's invasions in a bid to stay out of the army; and the singer, Lale Andersen, aroused the suspicion of the Gestapo with her Jewish lover and anti-Fascist beliefs. The artists' remarkable stories of arrests and close calls intertwine with the recollections of soldiers on all sides who fought their way through deserts and towns, seeking solace and finding hope in "Lili Marlene.""--BOOK JACKET.
