A HIDDEN BOOK. A FIERY SHIPWRECK. A LOST ISLAND.
In a lighthouse off the coast of Norway, a book is found within the debris of a small boat. It contains pictures and stories, written in several hands. Together, they tell the tale of a volcanic island in the North Atlantic called Tokket Fall, lost a century before, and of the community that lived there--people, animals, and mythical beings.
Its story told through over one hundred original drawings and paintings in addition to vibrant writing, this extraordinary novel explores the philosophy, tragedy, and humor of what is contained in our collective history and what we choose to hand down to one another. It reminds us that how we live in our world says much about who we are.
