We are pleased to present an excerpt from Alison Moore’s The Lighthouse, set to be released in the US on August 1st by Biblioasis. The novel, Moore’s first, was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize when it was released in the U.K. in 2012.  The Lighthouse has earned praise for its stark use of language and its powerful evocation of grief and memory from publications like The Guardian and The Observer.
