Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and a National Book Award finalist, this stunning novel tells the intertwined stories of a blind French girl and a German boy during World War II. Marie-Laure lives in Paris near the Museum of Natural History, where her father works. When the Nazis occupy Paris, they flee to Saint-Malo, where her reclusive great uncle resides, carrying with them a potentially dangerous jewel from the museum. Meanwhile, in Germany, orphan Werner Pfennig grows up with his sister, captivated by a radio that brings them news from distant places. His talent for fixing radios leads him to be recruited to track down the resistance. Through the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, the narrative explores the resilience of humanity and the struggle to maintain goodness in dire circumstances. Anthony Doerr's exquisite prose, filled with vivid details and metaphors, creates a deeply moving reading experience. After ten years of writing, this novel has captivated readers and critics alike, earning its place as a modern classic.
