Soon to be a major motion picture, The Nightingale is a multi-million-copy worldwide bestseller and a heartbreakingly beautiful novel celebrating the resilience of the human spirit and the endurance of women. Set during World War II, it tells the often forgotten story of what it meant to be a woman in wartime. Vianne and Isabelle Mauriac are two sisters divided by age, experience, ideals, passion and circumstance, each forced to follow her own dangerous path toward survival, love and freedom in occupied France. Kristin Hannah’s The Nightingale is a novel for everyone and a novel for a lifetime, praised as “a rich, compelling novel of love, sacrifice and survival” (Kate Morton), “movingly written and plotted with the heartless skill of a Greek tragedy” (Daily Mail), “a story of great characters, great plots and great emotion” (Isabel Allende), and “a gripping tale of family, love, grief and forgiveness” (Sunday Express).
