House of Lanterns
by Ariana Sloane
4.4 rating142 reviewsEnglish
An intimate winter novel set inside a family-run cinema facing one final season.
Printed endpaper illustration
Ideal companion for book clubs
Warm, cinematic atmosphere
The House of Lanterns is interested in projection rooms, neighborhood rituals, and the ways people rehearse departures long before they finally leave.
It is quieter than a broad ensemble novel and more emotionally direct than its premise first suggests.
