The Lighthouse Road by Peter Geye
A journey across the ocean,
A young woman on her own,
A stark wilderness in northern Minnesota
in 1896.
Gunflint Trail.
The beginning of a small town, Grand Marias.
The Lighthouse Road.
A logging camp in the deep woods,
an apothecary in town
a fish house on Lake Superior.
Dogs. Wolves. Bears.
Oh boy.
Thea alone, pregnant, lost.
Rebekah found, transformed, hidden.
Hosea inventive, wealthy, deceptive.
Odd, hardworking, misunderstood, loved.
A motherless child.
An incestuous affair.
Lies.
Boat building.
Dog-sledding.
Snow falling.
Whiskey running.
Trees toppling.
Ice breaking.
Wolves howling.
Wind blowing.
Waves crashing.
Silence.

Compelling
Memorable.
