Svjetlost u kolovozu

William Faulkner

A novel by the famous American writer that critics judge as his most complex work. Through the character of a pregnant girl, Lena Grove, who is searching for the father of her unborn child, Faulkner presents the entire society at that time in a time of cr

The novel follows Lena Grove, a pregnant young woman who travels in search of the father of her child, Lucas Burch. At the same time, the story focuses on Joe Christmas, a man of obscure origins who believes he has black blood, which forces him into an internal and external identity struggle. Christmas kills the woman he worked for, which sets off a chain of events that lead to his brutal execution. Pastor Hightower, a man haunted by the past, plays a key role in the story, while Lena ultimately continues her journey, symbolizing hope and the continuous cycle of life.

Typical of Ward and Keeland: emotional, entertaining, with an unavoidable single father, smoldering romances, humor, steamy scenes, and a happy ending. A book about opposites complementing each other and the power of love to heal wounds.
