"Winner of the 2005 Oral History Association Book Award" On March
24, 1944, Nazi occupation forces in Rome killed 335 unarmed
civilians in retaliation for a partisan attack the day before.
Alessandro Portelli has crafted an eloquent, multi-voiced oral
history of the massacre, of its background and its aftermath. The
moving stories of the victims, the women and children who survived
and carried on, the partisans who fought the Nazis, and the common
people who lived through the tragedies of the war together paint a
many-hued portrait of one of the world's most richly historical
cities. "The Order Has Been Carried Out" powerfully relates the
struggles for freedom under Fascism and Nazism, the battles for
memory in post-war democracy, and the meanings of death and grief
in modern society.
