Synopsis

Monumental...mesmerizing...Hillenbrand's writing is so ferociously cinematic, the events she describes so incredible, you don't dare take your eyes off the page. Extraordinarily moving...gripping,...a powerfully drawn survival epic...a master class in narrative storytelling. Marvelous...Unbroken is wonderful twice over, for the tale it tells and for the way it's told...It manages maximum velocity with no loss of subtlety. Ambitious and powerful...gripping in an almost cinematic way. This is one-in-a-billion story..seems designed to wrench from self-respecting critics all the blurby adjectives we normally try to avoid: It is amazing, unforgettable, gripping, harrowing, chilling, and inspiring. A meticulous, soaring and beautifully written account of an extraordinary life. Unbroken is too much book to hope for: a hell ride of a story in the grip of the one writer who can handle it.
