An exceptional new World War II novel: “The Vanishing Sky” by L. Annette Binder

July 17, 2020July 17, 2020 ~ The Longest Chapter ~ 2 Comments

"The Vanishing Sky" sings to the heart and gives meaning to the soul by its seductive atmosphere and memorable, resilient characters. A favorite read of mine this summer.

The Longest Chapter is written by book critic Kassie Rose. Her reviews and commentary can be heard on WOSU 89.7 FM, an NPR member station broadcasting throughout Central Ohio.
