Description
France, 1939. In the cozy, sleepy village of Carriveau, Vianne Mauriac says goodbye to her husband as he leaves to fight the Germans. She does not believe that the Nazis will invade France… But soon they are marching past her house, columns of tanks rumble by, and the sky is barely visible through the planes dropping bombs. War has come to the quiet French countryside. Vianne faces a choice: either quarter a German officer in her home or lose everything, perhaps even her life.
Isabelle Mauriac, a rebellious and willful eighteen-year-old girl, is determined to fight the occupiers. Reckless and daring, she is ready for anything, but her father forces her to go to the village to her older sister. Caught with other refugees in a German air raid, Isabelle meets Gaëtan amid chaos and death and falls in love as recklessly as she does everything else in life. Thus begins her path into the Resistance. She never looks back and never regrets her actions; again and again, risking her life, she saves people. Each of the two sisters, so different in character and fate, fights her own war. “The Nightingale” is an epic novel about war, sacrifice, suffering, and great love. A heartbreakingly beautiful novel that became a true hymn to female courage and strength of spirit. A novel for everyone, a novel for life. Kristin Hannah’s book became the world’s biggest bestseller of 2015; readers and a whole bouquet of print publications unequivocally named it the best novel of the year. Since 2016, “The Nightingale” has begun its triumphant march around the world; the book has already been published or is about to be released in 35 countries.
