Haunting and mesmerizing, an unforgettable novel of love and madness - from the author of the cult favorite Light Boxes

In his dazzling debut novel, Light Boxes, Shane Jones created an emotionally riveting, poetic tale about seasonal affective disorder. Now, in Daniel Fights a Hurricane, Jones crafts a fable grounded in love and loss, marriage and friendship, and the indifferent cruelty of the natural world.

Ever since he was a boy, Daniel Suppleton has been deathly afraid of hurricanes, which he fears will arrive suddenly and reduce everyone he knows and loves to trembling skeletons. Battling demons both real and imagined, Daniel retreats to a tipi in the woods. As his ex-wife, Karen, frantically searches for him, the long-awaited hurricane finally hits, and Daniel must find a way to save them both. Beautifully written and deeply imagined, Daniel Fights a Hurricane is an affecting, original novel by a rising literary talent.
