Reviews
" We Are the Light is a beautifully written and emotion-packed novel with a huge heart. Matthew Quick takes us on a searing and unforgettable journey through grief and empathy and how even the most broken of us can be repaired." --Harlan Coben, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Win, "Matthew Quick is one of the few fiction writers who, inspired by Jungian insights, makes a solid contribution to the impact of analysis. Like all significant works of art that reflect truths we might have known, had we not lost our way, We Are the Light is subtle and intimate, compellingly strange and hauntingly familiar, an initiation into the depths of suffering and love. It will not only break your heart--it will break it free." --Joseph R. Lee, Jungian analyst and cohost of This Jungian Life podcast, Advance praise for We Are the Light " We Are the Light is the book America needs right now. A novel that embraces our national heartbreak and division with love and compassion. Matthew Quick is the patron saint of the damaged and outcast and no one writes with more heart and empathy. You'll love this book." -- Nickolas Butler, author of Shotgun Lovesongs and Godspeed Praise for Matthew Quick "Mr. Quick ventures to the edges of society. . . . He rewards us with an irresistible urge to think the best of humanity, to understand not only the need to walk in someone else's shoes but also the altruistic power attained from doing so." -- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "Picking up a Matthew Quick novel is a lot like going to your favorite restaurant. You just know it is going to be good." -- Boston Herald "Quick celebrates the power of ordinary, flawed human beings to rescue themselves and each other. His writing is shot through with wit and humanity and an ultimately optimistic view of people, without ever becoming sentimental." --Graeme Simsion, author of The Rosie Project, "Matthew Quick has always been a brilliant chronicler of the ways in which we get broken, and the spectacular ways our lives can fall apart, and yet his greatest gift is the way he tries to find, within every story, an opportunity to put some of those pieces back together. In We Are the Light , where unexpected connections offer a way forward, Quick writes with such honesty and openhearted understanding of the pain and joy of being alive." --Kevin Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of Nothing to See Here, Advance praise for We Are the Light "Matthew Quick's We Are the Light is a treasure of a novel--wise, humane, and deeply moving. Whoever you are, whatever trials you've faced in life, read it and be healed." --Justin Cronin, author of the Passage Trilogy " We Are the Light is the book America needs right now. A novel that embraces our national heartbreak and division with love and compassion. Matthew Quick is the patron saint of the damaged and outcast and no one writes with more heart and empathy.

We Are the Light is a perfect read for anyone in need of an insightful, optimistic view of humanity's capacity for compassion and growth." --Shelf Awareness, "Matthew Quick's We Are the Light is a treasure of a novel--wise, humane, and deeply moving.

Synopsis
*"A treasure of a novel...read it and be healed." --Justin Cronin * "Beautifully written and emotion-packed." --Harlan Coben * From the New York Times bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbook --made into the Academy Award-winning movie starring Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper--a 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 hero--everyone, 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 Lucas's 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 "like going to your favorite restaurant. You just know it is going to be good," We Are the Light is "a testament to the broken and the rebuilt" ( 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.
