The enthralling tale of two young people caught up in the turmoil of war on the Eastern Front in 1944. Doerr’s evocative, image-laden prose underscores our knowledge that the darkness of war extinguishes the light by wresting away from humans the precious fundamentals of home, family and history. The light of the title is generated by the courageous actions of many and the ultimate redemption of one in the face of the adversity and ruin that only war can bring.
