5. The Title - All The Light We Cannot SeeAll the reasons we can see! • Our eyes can only see a miniscule part of the full spectrum of light. Different kinds of light are all around us but are invisible to the human eye. • X- rays • Radio waves • Microwaves • Electromagnetic waves and invisible light that carries messages between human beings. • Phone calls • Emails • Messages

6. All The Light We Cannot See THE TITLE & OTHER BOOKS I COULD RELATE TO Title -The All The Light We Cannot See A moment of Realization- • There comes a time in a character’s life when everything becomes clear and all the confusion and turmoil he/she has been going through is resolved. • The main character Marie-Laurie is blind since the age of six but as we read further we realize that she can ‘see’ more in her darkness then we can ‘see’ in the light. • The title also signifies that there is kindness even during a war. May be there are millions of real stories that have gone unnoticed or unseen or unheard. Hence the title- All the Light We Cannot See.

7. All The Light We Cannot See A change in perspective towards Nazi Germany • “Berlin! The very name like two sharp bells of glory. Capital of Science, seat of the führer, nursery to Bohr, Einstein, Staudinger, Bayer. Somewhere in these streets, plastic was invented. X-rays were discovered, continental drift was identified. What marvels does Science cultivate here now? Superman soldiers, Dr. Hauptmann says, and weather-making machines and missiles that can be steered by men a thousand miles away.”

By studying math and physics, Werner Pfennig thinks he is saving himself from a lifetime of menial labor in the mines of Essen. In much the same way, Marie-Laure trains herself to adapt to her blindness and walk through the streets by feeling a scale model of the town.

11. All The Light We Cannot SeeAll the characters we’ll meet! Marie-Laure - who is blind since the age of six and lives in Paris with her father who is a locksmith at the National Museum. She is intelligent, has a great interest in reading books. Her father has taught her Braille. He had also made a miniature of the city of Paris to help her familiarize with the surroundings. He would take her out for walks and spin her around then ask her to find her way home.

12. All The Light We Cannot SeeAll the characters we’ll meet! Werner Pfennig- an immensely talented and intelligent German boy. He is an orphan who lives with his younger sister in an orphanage in Zollverein, Germany. Since the age of eight Werner had a natural inclination towards science. He can fix radios and other small electronic appliances and earned a name for himself, soon he was spotted for his expertise and was sent to Schulpforta to be trained as a member of the Hitler Youth.

13. Fredrick An intelligent, shy student at the National Institute, who befriends Werner. Frederick is an avid scholar of birds, and idolizes Audubon, the great American naturalist. When he begins to fall behind in his studies and athletic performances, Frederick is increasingly bullied by the students and teachers, and Werner begins to distance himself from Frederick. Eventually, Frederick is beaten by the other students—so savagely that he loses his long-term memory, and spends the rest of his life as an invalid—something that inspires tremendous guilt in Werner.

14. Frank Volkheimer He is the huge, intimidating, and morally ambiguous staff sergeant who works as an assistant at Werner Pfennig’s school, the National Institute, and later commands Werner through his time in the German army. He is cruel. He kills without remorse but he takes care of Werner as one would of something fragile but precious. His true self comes out only in the end.
