A tender novel about fatherhood, grief, unanswerable questions, and the small, magical moments that make up a life.
In Blue Hours, proud stay-at-home dad Keith struggles to rebuilt his life after the sudden death of his wife, while guiding their sensitive and curious six-year-old son, Charlie, through his own profound loss. But as Keith sorts through his wife's belongings, his grief is complicated by revelations that challenge everything he thought he knew. As Keith faces the reality that his life's meaning may have been built on lies, Charlie stops speaking altogether.
Together, Keith and Charlie forge new connections with strangers, loved ones, and each other, learning to focus on small, magical moments that help them find a way forward. Alison Acheson has penned a tender, immersive, and intimate novel about the aftermath of grief and the ways that we are - and aren't - known to each other.
