Horror for Newbies
Elizabeth asked this question about All the Light We Cannot See:
**HUGE SPOILER ALERT** Was anyone else as disappointed as I was with Werner's death? I was so mad after reading it. I thought it was pointless and dissatisfying, almost like Doerr was done with him after he and Marie-Laure met, though I'm sure the author thought long and hard about it. Any thoughts?
Mary Yes, I was disappointed. I got the impression - as you'll see from my review - that the author set this up only to hint at a later miracle/meeting tha…moreYes, I was disappointed. I got the impression - as you'll see from my review - that the author set this up only to hint at a later miracle/meeting that does not happen. I grant you, it's hard to imagine a satisfying ending for Werner, I grant you. The poor boy was so stricken by guilt. But so many characters he is in contact with find some sort or redemption. Then why not him?(less)
