Title: Harbor Lights
First published: 2000
Description: "Harbor Lights follows the last weeks of lobster fisherman Warren Hudon's life. His character and passions shaped by the rough waters of southern Maine on which he spends his days, Warren has created a life of almost absolute isolation. But when he is diagnosed with rapidly developing cancer, he finds himself driven to make peace with his long-estranged wife, Beatrice, and their adult daughter, Marian.

Warren's search for reconciliation quickly forces him to confront the compromises of his past - Beatrice's long-standing affair with married senator Virgil Pound; Marian's alliance with her mother against her father; and the injustices wreaked daily against the lobstermen of Maine.

Told in restrained, evocative prose, Harbor Lights mesmerizes its readers with a tale of a marriage gone seriously awry and with Warren's growing rage, which reels out of control, culminating in an act of passionate violence."--BOOK JACKET.
