Lighthousekeeping / Jeanette Winterson.
Orphaned, anchorless Silver is taken in by the blind Mr. Pew, the mysterious and miraculously old keeper of the Cape Wrath lighthouse. Stories emerge from Pew's memory as Silver grows; the history of Cape Wrath and its founder, Babel Dark, who was a 19th-century clergyman. Dark lived two lives: a public one shrouded in darkness and a private one which shined with the light of love. For Silver, Dark's life becomes a map of her own particular darkness into her own life story.
