Description

The Lighthouse by Alison Moore tells the story of Futh, a middle-aged man who embarks on a walking holiday along the Rhine. As he travels, he reflects on his childhood and the events that have shaped him.

As Futh walks, he grapples with memories of his mother's abandonment and his complicated relationships with those around him. His journey takes him to a small hotel in Hellhaus, where he finds solace in the hospitality of the landlady, but also encounters a hostile barman.

The story unfolds as Futh returns to the sanctuary of the hotel at the end of his walk, unaware of the events that have been unfolding in his absence. A poignant and introspective novel about the power of memory and the human need for connection.
