Episode 7: All the Light We Cannot See

Listen Later

Welcome to the Highbrary. We are your Highbrarians. Today we cover “All The Light We Cannot See” by Anthony Doerr. This historical fiction novel takes us through World War 2 as seen through the eyes of two young people whose lives entwined across many years and radio waves. As we weave in and out of the fabric of time, we discuss the age old question of “are people inherently good”? You’ll also get a glimpse into the lives of Baby Annie and Baby Indy. Disclaimer, we cried a lot during the reading of the book AND recording of this episode. If that doesn't immediately turn you off, we’d love for you to join us for this heartbreaking beautiful trip through the Highbrary. Love, Indy and Annie
