Summary

Listening is an ideal medium for this Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, since author Anthony Doerr uses radio sound waves as a symbol of our shared humanity in this magnificently detailed and well-plotted story; a thrilling tale of life during wartime for both ambivalent soldiers and frightened civilians.

In this novel, two distinct stories unfold side by side. One, a romantic tale of blind Marie-Laure, the adored daughter of the master of locks at the Museum of Natural History in Paris, home of a most valuable and sought-after jewel. When the Nazis take Paris, she and her father flee to the seaside town of Saint-Malo, the home of her enchanting, eccentric great-uncle Etienne.

Meanwhile, in an impoverished mining town in Germany, orphan Werner grows up with his younger sister, tethered to the rest of the world only by sounds from a salvaged radio, late at night. He becomes an expert at these crucial new instruments, and this wins him a place in Hitler’s army, tracking the resistance. More and more aware of the human cost of his intelligence, Werner travels through the heart of the war and, finally, into Saint-Malo, where his story and Marie-Laure’s converge.

As thrilling as an Indiana Jones movie, and told with the beautiful prose of the best literary fiction, All the Light We Cannot See will transport you to the coast of France, where you might ponder how the very power of the spoken word can connect us all.

All The Light We Cannot See Book Free Download

Winner of the 2015 Audie Award for Fiction
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, a New York Times Book Review Top Ten Book, National Book Award finalist, more than two and a half years on the New York Times bestseller list
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.
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.
Doerr’s “stunning sense of physical detail and gorgeous metaphors” (San Francisco Chronicle) are dazzling. Ten years in the writing, a National Book Award finalist, All the Light We Cannot See is a magnificent, deeply moving novel from a writer “whose sentences never fail to thrill” (Los Angeles Times).

• This book was such an amazingly wound tale about the war from two very different view points. It gives a bit of insight into the Reich machine, as well as the brain washing that could occur amidst poor orphan children who had nothing to look forward to and nothing to lose.

• Best book I have ever read or listened too. And the narrator was superb at the reading. Brought me to tears..... I couldn't stop listening . My heart ached for the characters????I was very much moved by a war I have known little of before now. Such an atrocity to humanity !

• Truly an escape in time captured by great story telling. The narrator created the characters persona, highlighting the writers intended distinction and texture. The chapters drift into the crevices of history, love, art. A joy in the journey for the audience.

• I enjoyed it. The story's time-jumping does make it hard to follow, but also an interesting perspective.

• I've always loved WWII era stories, but this novel told the story in a new 'light,' if you will. Mr. Appelman personifies flawlessly the different characters. As a French speaker, I was very impressed with his prononciation, as well as the author's incorporation of the language. The two stories parallel each other in a way that is easy to follow, and doesn't seem forced at all once they merge. I highly recommend!!

• Beautifully written. When it came to an end I was so sad it was over and felt I knew each character and felt their pain.

• This book has two beautiful yet heart breaking stories intertwine and then collide completely. One of the best stories I've ever known.
