Why read it?

1 author picked Everyone Brave Is Forgiven as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Chris Cleave’s fourth novel was inspired by memories of his grandparents and their letters during the war. The novel follows the lives and relationships of four young people in Britain during the early years of World War II. It also follows action on the island of Malta, a part of World War II history not as well known. It’s also a story of love, friendship, and surprising choices. A warning: Do not read ahead.

From Deborah's list on World War II in Europe.
