About this listen
The Bestselling Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick
'One of the greatest storytellers of our time' - Delia Owens, author of Where the Crawdads Sing
Soon to be a major motion picture, Kristin Hannah's The Nightingale has captured the hearts of millions of readers becoming a number one bestseller across the world. It is a heart-breakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the endurance of women.
'I always thought it was what I wanted: to be loved and admired. Now I think perhaps I’d like to be known'
This story is about what it was like to be a woman during World War II, when women’s stories were all too often forgotten or overlooked . . . Vianne and Isabelle Mauriac are two sisters, separated by years and experience, by ideals and passion and circumstance, each embarking on her own dangerous path towards survival, love and freedom in war-torn France.
It is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime.
‘A rich, compelling novel of love, sacrifice and survival’ – Kate Morton, author of Homecoming
‘Movingly written and plotted with the heartless skill of a Greek tragedy, you’ll keep turning the pages until the last racking sob’ – Daily Mail
‘I loved The Nightingale . . . great characters, great plots, great emotions, who could ask for more in a novel?’ – Isabel Allende, bestselling author of The House of the Spirits
‘A griping tale of family, love, grief and forgiveness’ – Sunday Express
The Nightingale has sold more than 4 million copies globally, TIME, February 2021

Amazingly story of love and war..
Narrator has made it so much effort with voice variations I almost felt everything..the worst, the disgust, the sadness, the happiness and the losses all was felt..I have cried hysterically through this story..wars don't see genders or your young or old or your pregnant or you carry a new born..over millions of Jews dead...the story tells about how you heal through brokenness which is beyond repair..so something you have suffered need to be forgotten as if nothing happened yet at end all secrets all suffering (suffering is underrated word) reveal themselves and you see that love lasts..

Magnificent story - utterly moving.
Whoa. This book is absolutely riveting, with excellent writing and simply phenomenal characters. The story alone is a must-read for its poignant, powerful WW2 narrative of the shadow war. The narration could have been better because the narrator can’t embody many voices, But it’s doable. Overall, simply excellent.

Wounds heal, Love lasts, We remain.
One of the most humane novel's on war and life in war as well as life after a war. It's harrowing to listen to such a brilliant story set under a nazi setup. Polly Stone has done a great job reading this book for us. Her voice as well as her way of reading gives a very satisfying and enjoyable listening. Kristin Hannah has built in intricate characters who tell their own stories of struggle while a war is being waged by Nazis. My most favourite characters are sisters Isabelle and Vianne Rossignol.

Fantastic
I can feel so many emotions altogether. It's a masterpiece I would say. The life of two sisters, thier struggle during the world war 2 and how they endured everything to get through. A mind blowing story of bravery, love, sacrifice and loss that transports you to the war time. Such clear writing and impeccable performance by Polly stone. A perfect historical war fiction.

A story that touches your heart
The Nightingale is a must read.
The vivid description of the time during the World War will definitely make you ponder that how we should be thankful for good things in life. Life is more than finding faults, it's more of how much for giving. you are and how much giving you are as a person. This is my fourth book of Kristen Hannah and I am sure again I will get hooked to another book of hers. 😍

Heartfelt
It's a very heart touching story of world war two. Not only soldiers but their families too suffered and supported in war, which beautifully narrated in this period story.

Heartbreaking, but inspiring!
I am a wreck after this book, but don't let that scare you. This is the story of such courage in the midst of terrible horrors. Set in France during the second World War, this is the story of two sisters, and all that they go through in their attempts to survive themselves and save lives.
I am sad the book has ended, but i am glad there are a ton of books of #kristinhannah that i can devour.
Recommend very highly!
