Ghost Lights: A Novel
Lydia Millet
Suspecting his wife, Susan, is cheating on him with a younger coworker, Hal drunkenly volunteers to search for their missing boss who vanished in a tropical jungle in Belize, in this new novel from the author of How the Dead Dream.
Salonraved that Millet's -writing is always flawlessly beautiful, reaching for an experience that precedes language itself.- InGhost Lights, she combines her characteristic wit and a sharp eye for the weirdness that governs human (and nonhuman) interactions. With the scathing satire and tender honesty of Sam Lipsyte and a dark, quirky, absurdist style reminiscent of Joy Williams, Millet has created a comic, startling, and surprisingly philosophical story about idealism and disillusionment, home and not home, and the singular, heartbreaking devotion of parenthood.
