Sinopsis

Saint-Paul Mental Asylum, France, June 1889Newly admitted patient Vincent Van Gogh watched as the first stars of what would becomeáThe Starry Nightáblinked to life over the sleepy village of Saint-Rémy.In that village lived a lamplighter. That notorious starry night would be his last one on the job. The town was scheduled to be wired with a new and innovative technology called âÇÖelectricityâÇÖ the following day. The lamplighter began his last night of work at the village tavern during green hour - an absinthe-drenched celebration in his honor. Green hour would transform the night from familiar to fantastical, with the village street lamps mysteriously vanishing. The lamplighter finds himself swept away on a wonderfully strange adventure to find and light the lost lamps, one that will take him from the depths of wish-filled rivers to the heights of the star-filled sky. Along the way, the lamplighter finds help from a curious cast of characters including the Man in the Moon, an ages-old cypress tree, and the wind itself. It will take all of them to find the lost lamps, and a lost love.From author of the highly acclaimedáFairytale Chicago of Francesca Finneganácomes a thought-provoking and unconventional novella, sure to help readers rediscover the stars.
