A Special Illustrated Edition of The Ocean at the End of the Lane
The Ocean at the End of the Lane, the bestselling magical novel by master storyteller Neil Gaiman, has been given a stunning illustrated edition. The captivating illustrations have been created by the talented fine artist and illustrator, Elise Hurst. This remarkable book combines elements of fantasy and a poignant exploration of childhood memories and their lasting impact on our adult selves.
The Times aptly describes it as "a pitch-perfect fantasy and a moving examination of childhood memories and their effects on our adult selves." Joanne Harris, in her review, remarks that some books simply engulf us, leaving an indelible mark on our hearts and souls. This is precisely what the reader experiences as they delve into the memories of the protagonist, who sits by the ocean at the end of the lane.
The memories he recalls are extraordinary, ranging from a dead man on the back seat of a car to a warm glass of milk at a farmhouse, an ancient little girl, an old woman who witnessed the moon being made, a beautiful housekeeper with a monstrous smile, and dark forces awakened that should remain undisturbed. These recollections are hauntingly vivid, lurking at the fringes of our consciousness.
The protagonist's memories are not easily believed, but they hold the key to unlocking a past that he thought was lost. As he delves deeper into his recollections, he begins to piece together a narrative that suggests he may have been saved in a way he never imagined. The Ocean at the End of the Lane (illustrated) is a masterpiece that will transport readers to a world of magic, mystery, and introspection. With its stunning illustrations and profound storytelling, this edition is a must-have for fans of Neil Gaiman and anyone who appreciates the power of memory and the enduring impact of our childhood experiences.
