The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah
A breathtaking story of love, courage, and survival, The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah is one of the most celebrated historical novels of the decade. Set in Nazi-occupied France during World War II, it follows two sisters whose lives are torn apart by war — and the extraordinary choices they make to survive, resist, and protect those they love.
The Story
- Vianne, the older sister, struggles to protect her daughter and home as German soldiers occupy her village
- Isabelle, the younger and more rebellious sister, joins the French Resistance and risks everything to fight back
- Two very different paths through the same war — both equally harrowing, both equally heroic
- A story of sacrifice, resilience, and the unbreakable bond between sisters
- Based on the true stories of women who risked their lives during the Nazi occupation of France
