Reese Witherspoon's Book Club Bestseller

“One of the greatest storytellers of our time” - Delia Owens, author of Where the Crawdads Sing

Kristin Hannah's The Nightingale, soon to be a motion picture, has captured the hearts of millions of readers and has become a number one bestseller worldwide. It is an incredibly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the endurance of women.

“I always thought I wanted to be loved and admired. Now I think perhaps I'd like to be known.”

This story is about what it means to be a woman during World War II, when women's stories often remained forgotten or overlooked. Vianne and Isabelle Mauriac are two sisters, separated by years and experiences, ideals and passions, and circumstances, each embarking on her own perilous path to survival, love, and freedom in wartime France.

It is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime.
