The Librarian of Burned Books is a compelling WWII-era novel that weaves together the lives of three women who champion the transformative power of literature amid the horrors of war. Set in 1933 Berlin, American writer Althea James is drawn into a network of resistors; in 1936 Paris, Hannah Brecht confronts her painful past while striving to combat rising fascism through her work at the German Library of Burned Books; and in 1944 New York, widow Vivian Childs battles censorship as she fights to ensure that soldiers receive the stories they desperately need. Inspired by real historical events, this narrative highlights the enduring influence of books as weapons in the struggle for freedom and truth.
