The Paris Library: A Novel

The Paris Library by Janet Skeslien Charles is based on the history of the American library in Paris during World War II. The story is told in two timelines, and as with most books, one is usually more compelling. It is, as the name of the book suggests, the story in 1939 Paris. The story of 1983 Montana seems a frame around Odile's story of the war, providing context and closure.
