Italien 1944: Im Kampf um die Freiheit ist nichts so gefährlich wie die Liebe … Bildgewaltig, kenntnisreich und hoch dramatisch erzählt »Gran Paradiso« eine große historische Familiensaga, die sich vom Zweiten Weltkrieg bis in die 80er Jahre entspinnt. Ihr Leben lang hat die junge Turiner Journalistin Gianna mit ihrer übermächtigen Mutter gehadert: Maria Lanteri wurde als Partisanin in der Resistenza berühmt, ihr Kriegstagebuch ist in Italien bis heute Schullektüre. Doch als Gianna nach Marias Tod ins kleine Sant'Amato an der Riviera heimkehrt, um den Nachlass zu regeln, findet sie im Haus ihrer Tante eine ganz andere Version von Marias Tagebuch. Während sie mit zunehmender Bestürzung liest, was 1944 in jenem hart umkämpften Tal am Fuße des Gran Paradiso wirklich geschehen ist, stößt Gianna auf ein Geheimnis, das ihr Leben auf den Kopf stellt. In ihrer historischen Familiensaga zeigt Grit Landau das Sehnsuchtsland Italien aus einer ganz besonderen, ebenso kundigen wie liebevollen Perspektive.
