A Country of Eternal Light Summary

A Country of Eternal Light by Paul Dalgarno

Margaret Bryce has been having a hard time since dying in 2014.

In a place beyond, we join Margaret as she revisits her life, from her Aberdeen prefab childhood to the birth of her twin girls, through Thatcher's Britain, the Piper Alpha oil rig disaster, Australia's Black Summer bushfires, the death of Princess Diana and the COVID pandemic. But something isn't quite right. Margaret is trying to remember, but also fighting to forget.

A Country of Eternal Light will take you on a journey like no other. It is an utterly original, bitingly funny and poignant novel about life, death, what we choose to remember - and what we'd do anything to forget.
