About this listen
November 1944. A German rocket strikes London and five young lives are atomised in an instant.
November 1944. That rocket never lands. A single second in time is altered and five young lives go on - to experience all the unimaginable changes of the 20th century.
Because maybe there are always other futures. Other chances.
Light Perpetual is a story of the everyday, the miraculous and the everlasting. Ingenious and profound, full of warmth and beauty, it is a sweeping and intimate celebration of the gift of life.
From the best-selling, prize-winning author of Golden Hill, a novel of the everyday, the miraculous and the everlasting.
©2021 Francis Spufford (P)2021 W F HowesThere was only one character who I almost liked, the rest were awful or had awful lives. If things were going well for the character, we didn't learn of it because the author only focused on what was going badly in their lives.
So it was chapter after chapter of misery with a couple of brief exceptions.
I would not recommend it to anyone in my acquaintance.
