| Publisher Description: A tender story about loss and finding hope in the face of tragedy, We Own the Sky reminds us that every day is a gift.Rob Coates is broken. Once happily married to Anna, with a beautiful son, Jack, he is now a barely functioning alcoholic, unable to move on with his life. He runs a photography website, We Own the Sky, where he posts panoramic photos of places he's visited with his son, and tries his hardest to forget the past. Slowly we learn what Rob is hiding from: Jack's devastating diagnosis, the unraveling of his marriage, and his obsession with saving his son against all odds. As Rob is forced to confront how his past actions impacted those he loved, he must find a way to come to terms with a future without Anna and Jack--to find a way back to life, and forgiveness. We Own the Sky is a heartbreaking yet life-affirming novel about love: between husband and wife and between father and son. It is about how we make sense of the senseless, and asks what you would do when confronted with the unthinkable. How far would you go to save your child? Heartrending and endlessly thought-provoking, Luke Allnutt's debut is an awakening that shows when everything is lost, what survives is love. |
