Description

Set against the backdrop of World War II, this Pulitzer Prize finalist tells the story of two young people whose paths collide in occupied France.

A blind French girl and a German boy find themselves drawn together as they try to survive the devastation of war. The girl's father has built a miniature model of their Parisian neighborhood, allowing her to navigate by touch, while the boy grows up with a talent for building and fixing radios that becomes crucial in his work tracking down the Resistance.

As their stories intertwine, Doerr masterfully weaves together a tale of hope and humanity in the face of overwhelming adversity. With stunning physical detail and gorgeous metaphors, this novel shines as a powerful exploration of the human condition.
