With courage, grace, and powerful insight, bestselling author Kristin Hannah captures the epic panorama of World War II and illuminates an intimate part of history seldom seen: the women's war. The Nightingale tells the stories of two sisters, separated by years and experience, by ideals, passion and circumstance, each embarking on her own dangerous path toward survival, love, and freedom in German-occupied, war-torn France―a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the durability of women. It is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime. In love we find out who we want to be.In war we find out who we are.

妹妹伊莎贝尔，叛逆的18岁少女。因为爱人盖坦一句“我要你和我一起去战斗”，她便用了一生去追随。她一直活跃在对敌斗争的前线，以“夜莺”为代号营救了许多飞行员，光芒璀璨。留在卡利沃镇的姐姐薇安妮亲手将丈夫送上战场，独自抚养女儿苏菲，与征用自己房子的德国军官贝克周旋，沦为盖世太保冯·李希特的玩物。勇于反抗、慷慨赴死是一种勇敢，忍辱负重、不屈不挠地活下去，何尝不是另一种勇敢？只有经历过战争的人才会知道，死去是多么容易，而要活下去却无比艰难！克里斯汀·汉娜凭借勇敢、优雅而又颇具洞察力的方式捕捉下二战史诗般的全景，描绘出一段鲜为人知的私密历史：女性的战争。这部令人心碎的美妙小说赞颂了人类精神的达观和女性的坚忍。《夜莺》一书贯穿克里斯汀·汉娜作品的一贯风格，注重表现亲情、爱情与家庭价值，跨越不同年龄层的读者，同时将作品置于二战大背景之下，风格由清新转为恢弘，内心描写细腻深刻，是克里斯汀·汉娜史诗级的代表作。
