"A novel about the truths—some wonderful, some terrible—that children know and adults do not.” —Time Magazine
Returning
to his childhood home to attend a funeral, a middle-aged man is drawn back to a
place once alive with monsters and magic; to a past where the impossible is all
too frighteningly real . . .


A
haunting meditation on memory, wonder, friendship, and sacrifice, The Ocean
at the End of the Lane, which was named “Book of the Year” by the UK
National Book Awards, is a groundbreaking triumph of storytelling as delicate as
a butterfly’s wing and as menacing as a knife in the dark.
