All the light there was. a novel

At the beginning of All the light there was, Maral Pegorian, a teenage girl, peers through shuttered blinds as German troops march into Paris. Her journey to adulthood, over the next six years, takes her through a world transformed by war but also by everyday acts of heroism and love.

All the light there was is the story of an Armenian girl's struggle to survive the Nazi occupation of Paris in the 1940s - a lyrical, finely wrought tale of loyalty, love, and the many faces of resistance.
