A Sudden Light by Garth Stein
2.0

A Sudden Light by Garth Stein is book that promises a spooky, somewhat Gothic tale of a house, a family, and a timber fortune. It delivers a multigenerational family saga about a dysfunctional family and the power of relationships to build up and to destroy. The writing and imagery is artistic, but the fourteen year old narrator and the story are less so.
