With courage, grace, and powerful insight, bestselling author Kristin Hannah captures the epic panorama of World War II and illuminates an intimate part of history seldom seen: the women's war. The Nightingale was New York Times bestseller, Wall Street Journal Best Book of the Year, and is soon to be a major motion picture.
Kristin Hannah, former lawyer turned writer, is the New York Times bestselling author of more than twenty novels, including The Women, The Nightingale, The Great Alone, and The Four Winds.
The Nightingale tells the stories of two sisters, separated by years and experience, by ideals, passion and circumstance, each embarking on her own dangerous path toward survival, love, and freedom in German-occupied, war-torn France―a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the durability of women. It is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime.
Kristin Hanna’s most recent novel is The Women — the story of one woman gone to war, but it shines a light on the story of all women who put themselves in harm’s way to help others -- women whose sacrifice and commitment to their country has all too often been forgotten. The Women is a profoundly emotional, richly drawn story with a memorable heroine whose extraordinary idealism and courage under fire define a generation.
In The Women, like in The Nightingale and The Four Winds, Hannah exposes an important but largely unknown historical story: there were women serving in Vietnam. This novel shows us the Vietnam war up close and personal, through a woman’s eyes; what it was like to serve in a combat hospital and how it was to come home to an angry, bitter and divided America. What it was like to have your story forgotten.
It is about the unremembered women in an unpopular war. About women finding their voices and being sustained by friendships made on the battlefield. About the birth of a new culture and the music, ideas, fashion, and freedom that came with it, a story told about the price of patriotism and war through the hearts, minds, sacrifices and courage of the women who were there.
