Unbroken

Author: Laura Hillenbrand

Laura Hillenbrand’s “Unbroken” is a gripping tale of resilience that left me breathless. Following the extraordinary life of Louis Zamperini, from his rebellious youth to Olympic glory and beyond, Hillenbrand’s vivid prose transported me to the harrowing days of World War II. I found myself holding my breath during Zamperini’s 47 days adrift at sea, and wincing at the brutal conditions in Japanese POW camps. This book isn’t just a war story; it’s a testament to the indomitable human spirit. Truly unforgettable.

A lifetime of glory is worth a moment of pain.
