All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr | Conversation Starters
A Brief Look Inside:
All the Light We Cannot See, the second novel from Anthony Doerr, takes place during
World War II.
It tells the story of a young, blind girl living in Paris with her father. The pair must escape as the War nears
Paris, but not without taking
the precious, and highly sought after, Sea of Flames. Marie-Laure and her father travel to Saint-Malo to live with
Uncle Etienne and Madame Manec.
On the other side of the story, Werner Pfennig is a young boy growing up in Germany. He takes a special
interest in electronics and radios.
He becomes so skilled that he gains the attention of the Nazis and enters their training program. He eventually
arrives in Saint-Malo
and must make a decision that will change the life of Marie-Laure.
All the Light We Cannot See gained worldwide attention when it won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2015 and was a finalist for the National Book Award in 2014.
