Here I have collected a list of some of these books like The Nightingale, including nonfiction books about the lives of unlikely World War II heroines — resistance fighters and spies who stand in contrast to The Nightingale’s obsession with the blond beauty of its protagonist Isabelle. I have also included other riveting historical fiction that provide unique perspectives on devastating military and political conflicts. Want more books about the Second World War?
