Lydia Millet

4.9/5 (14997 ratings)

Description:A funny and haunting new novel from "one of the most acclaimed novelists of her generation" (Los Angeles Times).Hal is a mild-mannered IRS bureaucrat who suspects that his wife is cheating with her younger, more virile coworker. At a drunken dinner party, Hal volunteers to fly to Belize in search of Susan's employer, T.-the protagonist of Lydia Millet's much-lauded novel How the Dead Dream-who has vanished in a tropical jungle, initiating a darkly humorous descent into strange and unpredictable terrain.Salon raved that Millet's "writing is always flawlessly beautiful, reaching for an experience that precedes language itself." In Ghost 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.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
