I think I formed far too concrete of an expectation for this, based on... nothing? The cover, our weather? The book was good in its own right but I also want to read the story I half-imagined. Basically what I am saying is it doesn't matter how surrealistically you meta, I want an epic defeat of February. ( ) Neat concept - facing eternal February (dead of winter). Especially given I read it in a remote cabin in upper, upper peninsula Michigan trying to decide if my man and I want to be hermits here for the rest of our days. We're heavily leaning towards "yes, please" despite (because of?) the 8 months of snow. However, this novel (novella, who's he kidding?) was strange - and that's coming from me. Still, appreciated the mood to help ponder my life crossroads. #drunkreview sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
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.
