Fabulous book. I'm reading it for the second time and can't wait for the movie. I'm an Army veteran and have known a number of WWII veterans and listened to their stories of serving in Europe. Have also visited France several times and while visiting Normandy saw the history of what happened in France.
This was my first book I read from her and loved every page. It is a true page turner. I am looking forward to the movie. Much honors to mrs. Hannah.❤❤❤❤❤
Wonderful and captivating novel. I listened to the audiobook thru my local library. Public libraries are libraries are filled with great treasures . My parents who were both from Europe and lived thru WWll , my father was from Poland my mother from Germany. Both went through horrific times, however , my father couldn’t talk about them. He was in the Polish resistance having been wounded and captured by the Germans sent to 3 different labor camps each attached to a concentration camp where they were starved and did hard labor. When he was liberated near the end of the war , he was near death having typhus and suffering from extreme starvation. He couldn’t talk about any part of it except to say the Russians would have killed them immediately. The Nightingale helped me see some of my father’s story.
I just finished her last book The Women about the nurses in Vietnam. Is the most descriptive book about the war, the nurses, doctors, medics. So emotional, it got to my soul, finally a book about the brave women that were not accepted as veterans. I was a foreign student at 15 in the USA, and my first impression at the airport was seeing American soldiers being insulted and spat at, I was horrified, being a foreign made me think if the do their soldiers ,what can happen to me. Of course I was very much looked after by my college friends. Years later in living in Korea with my husband, on a business posting, I wanted to do something for the young American soldiers and was trained as an American Red Cross Volunteer at the military hospital where some of the soldiers were brought at the end of the war. Highly recommend this book and hope a film is made to honor American nurses ,red cross, that served in Vietnam, that were denied the status of veterans including for mental health.
I have listen to the audible cds 2 times now. Totally touched my heart. Have never relized what exactly what when on back then...tonight I only relized my father was a child through that!!!
