Description - In the Half Light by Anthony Lawrence

*The story of a young man's emergence from a headful of secrets to a life of understanding*In the half light of James Malloy's beautiful visions are two worlds: one which he lives in, one which lives in him. To outsiders he's an average, perhaps rather quiet, youngster, sometimes in trouble, much loved by his parents. But he knows that the lights and colours, the voices and amazement inside his head, and the way they sometimes escape through his mouth, make him different.Different to everyone, until one day he meets Stephanie. The truths she will tell James drive him to examine his life, to find out what lies at the centre of his curious world. And so begins a journey that will take him from Australia to the west coast of Ireland, from adolescence to adulthood, from isolation to acceptance. Haunting and optimistic, Anthony Lawrence's remarkable debut novel is a delightful story of one young man learning that all things are possible if he can overcome his own fear.
