All the Light we cannot see
All the Light we cannot see is the 2015th Pulitzer award winning book written by Antony Doerr.
this story revolves around two main characters Werner who is an training soldier at the Nazi training camp. He is an orphan so he and his sister roam around the small mining town where they find a broken Radio. They both take it home and discovers how it works and Werner studies the components then he fixes the radio. He developed a greater affection towards science when he was observing the radio. After that he wished to become an scientist.
The second character is a small girl who became blind due to some illness. Marie Laure spends her time with her father at the museum. She being blind starts to observe the world through her ears and memorizes the path to home and to the museum. Her father works as a Locksmith at the museum. One day suddenly Marie Laure and her father starts to leave the town because of the Nazi invasion in France. She and her father both leave France.
To me this a great novel. This story tells about survival and endurance. As we see we should not leave our heart down even during the darkest of times.
