Ilustration Supposing Books Lights on the Sea

"Miquel Reina's Lights on the Sea is an absolutely lovely, beautiful novel with a dreamy, fable-like quality. Fans of Life of Pi will love this novel." – Kristin Hannah, NYT bestseller author of "The Nightingale" In this riveting debut, prize-winning artist and filmmaker Miquel Reina maps out ambitious and fantastical new territory in a novel about a couple holding on for dear life as their world takes an extraordinary fall… On the highest point of an island, in a house clinging to the edge of a cliff, live Mary Rose and Harold Grapes, a retired couple still mourning the death of their son thirty-five years before. Weighed down by decades of grief and memories, the Grapes have never moved past the tragedy. Then, on the eve of eviction from the most beautiful and dangerously unstable perch in the area, they’re uprooted by a violent storm. The disbelieving Grapes and their home take a free-fall slide into the white-capped sea and float away. As the past that once moored them recedes and disappears, Mary Rose and Harold are delivered from decades of sorrow by the ebb and flow of the waves. Ahead of them, a light shimmers on the horizon, guiding them toward a revelatory and cathartic new engagement with life, and all its wonder. Wildly imaginative, deeply poignant, and entirely unexpected, Lights on the Sea sweeps readers away on a journey of fate, acceptance, redemption, and survival against the most rewarding of odds. "Miquel Reina's Lights on the Sea is an absolutely lovely, beautiful novel with a dreamy, fable-like quality that will appeal to readers. Fans of Life of Pi will love this novel." – Kristin Hannah, NYT bestseller author of "The Nightingale" "An enjoyable, finely written fantasy tale." – Kirkus Reviews “This beautiful, unusual tale explores the healing power of love and the magic that exists in our everyday lives, even when we don’t know how to find it.” – Jill Santopolo, NYT bestseller author of "The Light We Lost"

I was so in love with Mr. and Mrs. Grapes that I didn't want the story to end, even though my breath caught numerous times in anticipation as to what would happen next. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to everyone. I thank Netgalley for allowing me to read and review this great book!

The scenes took off with a maddening intensity that failed to yield. Many

They will be moving into a retirement away from the sea that they have always been close to. During the night before their move, the house falls into the sea

"A home isn't built with walls or determined by where we are . . . A home is built from our experiences, from the people we meet along the way, and more than anything, from how we decide to journey through life. Life is movement. A precarious equilibrium that can change in an instant."I absolutely LOVED this extraordinary novel! Part adrenalin-pumping adventure story; part marital revitalization journey; part magical-realism healing voyage. And all things that make a fabulous, literary

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of this book In exchange for a honest review. What a powerful book. This is a truely magical read. Lights on the sea is beautifully written and moved me deeply. I was heartbroken and reduced to tears more than once, but also blown away at the level of understanding shown towards human emotion and the power of forgivness and love. This was a spiritual journey that you can't read without being pulled into. " A home isn't built with walls or
