Past Reads Saturday: All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr (Audiobook)
My second selection in Past Reads Saturday is All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr.
Goodreads Description
Marie-Laure lives in Paris near the Museum of Natural History, where her father works. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel.
In a mining town in Germany, Werner Pfennig, an orphan, grows up with his younger sister, enchanted by a crude radio they find that brings them news and stories from places they have never seen or imagined. Werner becomes an expert at building and fixing these crucial new instruments and is enlisted to use his talent to track down the resistance. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, Doerr illuminates the ways, against all odds, people try to be good to one another.
From the highly acclaimed, multiple award-winning Anthony Doerr, the stunningly beautiful instant New York Times bestseller about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II.
My Thoughts
This was a much loved book for me. I wish I had reviewed it when I listened to it but alas I did not. It is one I still, to this day, will recommend to those who like historical fiction or historical fiction based on WWII. Stay tuned as I will be reviewing Anthony Doerr’s newest novel, Cloud Cuckoo Land, which releases on September 28!
