Prepare for a captivating Netflix adaptation helmed by Shawn Levy, featuring a stellar cast including Louis Hofmann, Lars Eidinger, Marion Bailey, Hugh Laurie, and Mark Ruffalo, with newcomer Aria Mia Loberti.

Anthony Doerr's "All the Light We Cannot See" has garnered numerous accolades, including the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, a National Book Award nomination, and the Carnegie Medal for Fiction. This New York Times bestseller weaves an intricate tapestry of human resilience amidst the chaos of World War II.

At the heart of this masterfully crafted narrative are two extraordinary young souls: Marie-Laure, a blind French girl whose father constructs a miniature replica of their Parisian neighbourhood to aid her navigation, and Werner, a German orphan with an uncanny talent for radio engineering. As the Nazi occupation unfolds, their paths intertwine in a dance of fate and circumstance.

Doerr's prose is a symphony of vivid imagination and meticulous detail, painting a world where an old man discovers new horizons without leaving his home, and where the brutality of war threatens to extinguish the flickering flames of innocence. This poignant elegy to human spirit and ingenuity has been hailed as "sublime" by The Times, "magnificent" by The Guardian, and "epic" by the Daily Mail.

"All the Light We Cannot See" is a literary tour de force that will ensnare your senses and linger in your thoughts long after you've turned the final page. Prepare to be enthralled by this "vastly entertaining feat of storytelling" (New York Times) that illuminates the unseen connections that bind us all.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
