Using stories to help bring environmental issues into light is awesome, and Jeff is really great at it. Give the man a nobel prize, I say. His work is amazing.
Something about that Lighthouse, and the surrounding landscape gives off that feeling of Area X... After reading the book, I can definitely feel it now. If I hadn't read the book, it would probably just be like any other beach with a run down Lighthouse.
After reading The Southern Reach, I can honestly say that it helped me to better appreciate the complexities and beauty of those things that go totally unnoticed. Like the small ecosystem living in flooded tractor tracks left in the mud, or the neglected algae filled pool, that became an oasis for frogs and small fish.
its insane that the setting of the book was written so that i saw it in my mind exactly as it exists in real life. so still and stoic as to almost be dead.
oh god it's the lighthouse...
it really is THE lighthouse. im blown away/
I grew up in this area so I had vivid images in my mind of the landscape of area x while I read these books
Good fiction is so hard to find these days I LOVE seeing an author bask in their glory.
writing in a way that tells you every thing you see. and the rest of the story is a playground for thinking. so great.
This perfectly describes the southern reach trilogy i am reading right now.. i devoured the first two books in 3 days now reluctant to start with the third because i want it to last…
this is so amazing! I love Jeff!
