Light

Light is a poignant story of love, loss and English summer. After the death of his father and the loss of his job, Ben s reacquaintance with a childhood friend pitches him into a glamorous life among a wealthy, rural set. In a milieu of infidelity, corruption, cash and unrequited love, the narrator inadvertently achieves artistic fame. Through revelations of long-buried love, mix-ups and malice, an accident occurs and an innocent party takes the blame. Inspired by the art and media world of the late 1990s, when an idealistic and transient glamour created millions for the elite of the new economy, Light has a strong claim to being the English Great Gatsby.
