Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Set in WWII-era Germany, The Book Thief tells the story of a twelve-year-old girl called Liesel Meminger, the eponymous book thief, living with her foster parents, Hans and Rosa Hubermann. This book is entirely narrated from the perspective of Death—who has surprisingly witty and dry sense of humor (and uses beautiful metaphors a lot). Written by Markus Zusak. A film adaptation was released in 2013, starring Sophie Nélisse as Liesel and Geoffrey Rush and Emily Watson as the Hubermanns.Keep some tissues handy.

Aww, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Even though Hans and Rosa are locked in The Masochism Tango, Hans brings eggs back to Rosa and genuinely cares for her, while Rosa prayed for Hans' safety with his accordion every night when he was sent to war.

The Atoner: Ilsa Hermann is a version of this, never lighting fires, always opening windows, constantly living in a cold, dreary house because of how her son froze to death.

comment
Adaptation Distillation: What did you expect? The movie cut out some lesser elements from the book, and the main plotlines featured in the film were simplified. It also cut a few of the minor characters out. Most notably, Franz Deutscher had a much larger role in the film, becoming a compression of several minor characters.
