With this passage, Hannah captures both the essence and the wisdom of her protagonist. It both tells us about her past . . . and hints at the difficult choices she may have to make.
It’s early in the year, but I think The Nightingale will be one of my favorite 2024 reads. Kristin Hannah places some beautiful and descriptive lines within a poignant plot fleshed out with engaging characters. If you’ve not read any Hannah, I’d recommend her work (especially The Nightingale)! Check her out in GoodReads!
