 Today in the ArtZany Radio studio Paula Granquist welcomes novelist Peter Geye to discuss A Lesser Light. Set on the rocky shores of Lake Superior at the turn of the 20th century, this is the story of Theodulf, a master lighthouse keeper, and his new wife Willa, a well-educated young woman and a reluctant bride with her eyes to the night sky. The book explores how selfhood and determinism develops: is the future what we’re handed or what we make of it?
