Julie Teal cannot do this type of narration. What didn’t you like about Julie Teal’s performance? Julie Teal's mispronunciations: 'Pistol Packing Maar Maar' - hilarious.

What was one of the most memorable moments of All the Light We Cannot See? Great novel - almost a masterpiece but no one should have to suffer this narration. If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more? THE WORST NARRATION I HAVE HEARD BY A PROFESSIONAL Ten years in the writing, All the Light We Cannot See is his most ambitious and dazzling work. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, Doerr illuminates the ways, against all odds, people try to be good to one another.

Werner travels through the heart of Hitler Youth to the far-flung outskirts of Russia, and finally into Saint-Malo, where his path converges with Marie-Laure.ĭoerr’s gorgeous combination of soaring imagination with observation is electric. He becomes a master at building and fixing radios, a talent that wins him a place at an elite and brutal military academy and, ultimately, makes him a highly specialised tracker of the Resistance. In another world in Germany, an orphan boy, Werner, grows up with his younger sister, Jutta, both enchanted by a crude radio Werner finds. When the Germans occupy Paris, father and daughter flee to Saint-Malo on the Brittany coast, where Marie-Laure’s agoraphobic great uncle lives in a tall, narrow house by the sea wall. When she is six, she goes blind, and her father builds her a model of their neighborhood, every house, every manhole, so she can memorise it with her fingers and navigate the real streets with her feet and cane. Marie Laure lives with her father in Paris within walking distance of the Museum of Natural History where he works as the master of the locks (there are thousands of locks in the museum). Winner of the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for FictionĪ beautiful, stunningly ambitious novel 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, from the highly acclaimed, multiple award-winning Anthony Doerr.
