As the strands weave together in Douglas Stuart's story of family, isolation, guilt and beauty, I became swept up in Falabay, the Scottish island home of John, Cal and Innis. Stuart's prose is as lush and stark as the landscape. John of John encompasses a richly imagined world where the love of father and son, the love of one man for another, and the ways keeping the truth hidden impacts all those around you. Family, friends and neighbors swirl around the main characters, but it is love that binds them all together.
