This new novel by Anthony Doerr is a worthwhile summer read. The story of two children growing into teens right before and during World War II. There are war images in the background and provide a motive for some of the activity. But the novel is about being part of the moment. What do we see? What do we learn?
The two stories are separate and then intertwine for a short period of time. A young blind girl gives the story its title. However are not all the characters blind in some way? Even with perfect eyesight do we see?
