From the New York Times bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbookâmade into the Academy Awardâwinning movie starring Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooperâa 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 heroâeveryone, 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 Lucasâs 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 âlike going to your favorite restaurant. You just know it is going to be good,â We Are the Light is âa testament to the broken and the rebuiltâ (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.
