Omschrijving
‘Magnificent … melds sharp insight with great heart’ NICOLE DINAN
‘A thoughtful and compelling exploration of human ambition’ ALICE WINN
‘Truly lovely … the scope of an epic’ JO HAMYA
A beautiful, heartbreaking novel about ambition, love and space from the award-winning author of the Women’s Prize longlisted Wandering Souls.
January 28, 1986: moments after launch, the Challenger shuttle falls from the sky. At the same time, in a small English village, Oliver Ines is born.
Ollie spends his childhood in a bedroom covered in glow-in-the-dark wallpaper, bearing the planets and stars. Decades later, he has become one of the most renowned astronauts of his time. When an enterprising billionaire approaches him to lead a landmark, ten-year mission to the distant moon, Europa, Ollie cannot resist the call of history.
As the mission advances deeper into uncharted territory, Ollie finds himself retreating into the past: his school days and years in the navy, relationships found and lost, becoming a husband and father. But will the world he remembers still be waiting for him when he returns?
Celestial Lights is a breathtaking story of fate, love, and sacrifice, that questions what we owe ourselves and our loved ones, when our ambitions and loyalties collide.
‘Incredibly beautiful … deeply moving’ ORE AGBAJE-WILLIAMS, author of The Three of Us
‘I found myself unable to put it down or look away. A wonderful and singular reading experience’ JENNY MUSTARD, author of What A Time To Be Alive
‘Atmospheric, original, and beautiful … has you captivated long after the last page’ ELA LEE, author of Minbak
‘This stunning, exhilarating and unforgettable journey through time and space will stay with me always’ ELIANA RAMAGE, author of To the Moon and Back
