A poignant and fantastical first novel by a timeless new literary
voice.
With all the elements of a classic fable, vivid descriptions, and
a wholly unique style, this idiosyncratic debut introduces a new
and exciting voice to readers of such authors as George Saunders,
Kurt Vonnegut, and Yann Martel.
In "Light Boxes," the inhabitants of one closely-knit town are
experiencing perpetual February. It turns out that a god-like
spirit who lives in the sky, named February, is punishing the town
for flying, and bans flight of all kind, including hot air balloons
and even children's kites. It's February who makes the sun nothing
but a faint memory, who blankets the ground with snow, who freezes
the rivers and the lakes. As endless February continues, children
go missing and more and more adults become nearly catatonic with
depression. But others find the strength to fight back, waging war
on February.
