Description
For Nedra and Viri, life is a carefully crafted picture of perfection - dinners, games with the children, enviable friends, and idyllic days spent skating or sunning. But beneath the surface, fine cracks are beginning to spread, threatening to mar the beauty of their existence.
This exquisite novel is a poignant exploration of lost lives and the elusive nature of happiness. With its witty, tender, and resonant prose, Light Years is a deeply moving portrayal of a marriage on the brink of collapse.
Seductive and engaging, this novel will appeal to readers who appreciate a thoughtful and nuanced exploration of the human experience.
