あらすじ・解説

*“A treasure of a novel…read it and be healed.”—Justin Cronin * “Beautifully written and emotion-packed.”—Harlan Coben *

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbook—made into the Academy Award-winning movie starring Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper—a poignant and hopeful novel about a widower who takes in a grieving teenager and inspires a magical revival in their small town.

Lucas Goodgame lives in Majestic, Pennsylvania, a quaint suburb that has been torn apart by a recent tragedy. Everyone in Majestic sees Lucas as a hero—everyone, that is, except Lucas himself. Insisting that his deceased wife, Darcy, visits him every night in the form of an angel, Lucas spends his time writing letters to his former Jungian analyst, Karl. It is only when Eli, an eighteen-year-old young man whom the community has ostracized, begins camping out in Lucas’s backyard that an unlikely alliance takes shape and the two embark on a journey to heal their neighbors and, most importantly, themselves.

From Matthew Quick, whose work has been described by the Boston Herald as “like going to your favorite restaurant. You just know it is going to be good,” We Are the Light is “a testament to the broken and the rebuilt” (Booklist, starred review). The humorous, soul-baring story of Lucas Goodgame offers an antidote to toxic masculinity and celebrates the healing power of art. In this unforgettable and optimistic tale, Quick reminds us that life is full of guardian angels.

批評家のレビュー

"Matthew Quick’s latest novel, told through letters written by Lucas Goodgame, is brought to life by Luke Kirby’s heartrending narration. Kirby is the voice of Lucas, who is reading letters written to Karl, his Jungian analyst, as Lucan tries to cope with the tragedy that shattered his life and the lives of all the citizens of Majestic, Pennsylvania. Kirby lets listeners feel Lucas’s hurt and frustration as his letters go unanswered and he questions the title “hero” that the town bestowed on him. Kirby speaks with wonder as Lucas recounts events that reaffirm how forgiveness and the support of community can rekindle hope and healing. Even as delivered in Lucas’s letters, important supporting characters’ personalities come through loud and clear."AudioFile Magazine
