Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What was it like to grow up in New England of decades ago? How did Eric cope with the adventures and anxieties of boyhood and then with the challenges of high school and college life?How did Eric choose his friends, hide or face his mistakes, and justify his evasions? What happened with the debater's talent that he pursued without quite understanding it? This fictional memoir of fourteen chronological stories takes the reader through a simpler, yet complex enough era when ethnic and religious changes ruffled established values. What should he do about a rock-throwing rival, the meaning of "forever," friends whose cultures clashed, and girls who were a mystery and a dilemma? What to say and not say to parents, teachers, and to all those nuns/priests/brothers who understood but didn't exactly?" All the ingredients for happiness are at hand," Eric imagined a college classmate telling him, but putting those ingredients together was like trying to figure out where Catholicism was going after Vatican II or why exactly the U.S. Was in Vietnam and where that policy would lead."--Author's website.

Book All the Light We Cannot See

Download or read book All the Light We Cannot See written by Anthony Doerr and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-05-06 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *NOW A NETFLIX LIMITED SERIES—from producer and director Shawn Levy (Stranger Things) starring Mark Ruffalo, Hugh Laurie, and newcomer Aria Mia Loberti* Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award finalist, the beloved instant New York Times bestseller and New York Times Book Review Top 10 Book about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II. Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris, and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel. In a mining town in Germany, the orphan Werner grows up with his younger sister, enchanted by a crude radio they find. Werner becomes an expert at building and fixing these crucial new instruments, a talent that wins him a place at a brutal academy for Hitler Youth, then a special assignment to track the Resistance. More and more aware of the human cost of his intelligence, Werner travels through the heart of the war and, finally, into Saint-Malo, where his story and Marie-Laure’s converge. Doerr’s “stunning sense of physical detail and gorgeous metaphors” (San Francisco Chronicle) are dazzling. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, he illuminates the ways, against all odds, people try to be good to one another. Ten years in the writing, All the Light We Cannot See is a magnificent, deeply moving novel from a writer “whose sentences never fail to thrill” (Los Angeles Times).
