Shining Sea Anne Korkeakivi

An audiobook, spanning several generations, which draws us into the complicated world of a family in California after the sudden death of the father. Beginning with forty-three-year-old Michael Gannon's fatal heart attack, SHINING SEA draws us into the turbulent lives of his widow and offspring. In the wake of their loss, the Gannon clan find themselves charting paths they never anticipated, for decades to come. Korkeakivi transports the listener through the years: from WWII to the present, from California to Woodstock's heyday, and from London's gritty nightlife in the eighties to the rough seas of the Inner Hebrides. Epic, tender, and beautifully rendered, SHINING SEA is an American family story-about the ripple effects of war, the passing down of memory, and the ways our heroes can both lead us astray--and keep us afloat.
