Set in World War II Europe, Anthony Doerr’s Pulitzer prize-winning “All the Light We Cannot See” grapples with what becomes of morality, of legacy, of human connection, and of fate when confronted with the shattering brutalities of war. Doerr’s lyrical, writing style propels the story forward, allowing the reader to slip into blind Marie-Laure’s. Despite the praise, the awards, and the fierce loyalty of its readers, the novel is regularly removed from classrooms and libraries across the country and was not permitted as reading material for a 12th grade English class in the Glendale District School in Cambria County, Pennsylvania, putting the book banning epidemic in critical context.
