Upcoming Netflix limited series All the Light We Cannot See is based on the best-selling book by the same name, but is it rooted in history?
In April, Netflix unveiled the first trailer for its eagerly anticipated adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel All the Light We Cannot See. Published in 2014, Light sold over 15 million copies and won practically every literary award in existence. Its 200-week stint on the New York Times Bestseller List was a monumental feat and a testament to how profoundly author Anthony Doerr's work affected readers around the globe.
Roughly a year later Doerr visited Saint-Malo, a coastal French city. He was intrigued by how such an ancient town survived a military onslaught. As Doerr described to HuffPost in 2015: "You walk its cobbled lanes, you smell the tides, you hear the echoes of your footsteps, and you think: this city has survived for well over a thousand years.
What Happened at the Battle of Saint-Malo? Because Saint-Malo was a town along the English Channel with a large port, German forces seized control in 1940 and used it as a key naval base during the French Occupation. It was part of France's Occupied Zone and one of the cities that made up the Atlantic Wall, Germany's effort to hold off potential sieges from the United Kingdom.
