Description:
<DIV><B>A moving novel of fear, desire, loss, and discovery on Martha’s Vineyard, from the <I>New York Times</I>–bestselling author of <I>The Rules of Magic </I>and <I>Seventh Heaven</I>.</B><BR /><BR /> Elizabeth Renny has only made two decisions of consequence in her seventy-plus years. While the first, marrying her husband, had adequate results, the second—deciding she could fly from her bedroom window—is less successful. But her flight sets in motion a series of events that will forever change the lives of six residents of Martha’s Vineyard: a young boy who refuses to grow, a wife stifled by her irrational anxiety, a husband tempted by the unknown, a girl flirting with disaster, a gentle giant tortured by his size, and an old woman with nothing to lose.<BR />  <BR /> Praised as “an intelligent novel” by the<I> New York Times</I> and “achingly vivid” by <I>Newsday</I>, <I>Illumination Night</I> is a sparkling and heartbreaking narrative that explores marriage, friendship, youth, yearning, disillusionment, and desire, a book as bright and memorable as the festival of lanterns for which it is named.</DIV>
