ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“The Book Thief” by Markus Zusak is set in Nazi Germany and follows Liesel Meminger, a young girl sent to live with foster parents during World War II. Narrated by Death, the novel explores themes of loss, survival, and the power of words. Liesel forms a deep bond with her foster father, Hans, who teaches her to read, and together they steal books as a form of resistance to the oppressive regime. As the war intensifies, Liesel faces unimaginable hardships but finds comfort in stories, highlighting the resilience of the human spirit amidst war and destruction.
