It's a short book - but beware. You will read it again before long and that second reading will tell you a great deal more. You will realise the extent to which Moore trusted you on the initial reading to grasp the outline of the story. Now your imagination will fill in the subtle shading. It's a superb book and I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
The Lighthouse is - in August 2012 - on the Booker Long List. I hope it progresses but in the meantime you might enjoy another long listed book which is similarly short and demands a second reading - [[Swimming Home by Deborah Levy]]. We also have a review of [[He Wants by Alison Moore]].
