The Nightingale

by Kristin Hannah

2015 · 440 pages · Fiction

Set in German-occupied France during World War II, this poignant novel follows two sisters, Vianne and Isabelle, as they navigate the horrors of war in vastly different ways. While Vianne struggles to protect her daughter and survive the occupation of her home, the rebellious Isabelle joins the Resistance to risk everything for freedom. It is a harrowing, beautifully written tribute to the resilience of the human spirit and the quiet, often overlooked heroism of women during wartime.

Very popular worldwide. More than 11 million people have read it.
