Set in a Scottish caravan area during a freak winter - it is snowing in Jerusalem, the Thames is overflowing, and an iceberg segregated from the Fjords in Norway is expected to arrive off of the coastline of Scotland - The Sunlight Pilgrims tells the story of a small Scottish community coping with what people have begun to think is the end of times. Bodies are found freezing in the street with their sight open; midst economical collapse, schooling and health care are run mostly on the voluntary basis. Dylan, a refugee from panic-stricken London who's grieving for his mom and his grandmother, comes in the caravan area in the center of the night - to get started his life anew. Under the equipment and lighting of the aurora borealis, he's attracted to his neighbour Constance, a female who's known for having two fans; her 11-year-old child, Stella, who's struggling to navigate changes in her own life; and seniors Barnacle, so crippled that he walks facing the earth. But as the heat drops, daily life keeps on: people get out of bed, they make a glass of tea, they show up in love, they complicate. The Sunlight Pilgrims, the thrilling follow-up to The Panopticon, is a humane, miserable, funny, strange and beautiful novel about absence, about the unknowability of mothers. It is a tale about people in extreme circumstances finding each other - and finding themselves.
