Remarkably Bright Creatures
In the coastal town of Sowell Bay, seventy-year-old widow Tova Sullivan cleans the aquarium after hours — partly for the paycheck, mostly to keep grief from swallowing the nights. There she forms an unlikely friendship with Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus who sees far more than his captors realize. When a lost young man arrives searching for the father who abandoned him, three lonely lives begin to braid together — and an old mystery about Tova’s missing son starts to surface.
“We are all of us a little remarkable, if only we look closely enough.”
