An Island

This book was a thoughtful, solemn meditation on connection and solitude and society as a whole. The prose was absolutely beautiful without being flowery, matching the stark setting of the lighthouse and its island. Another thing to recommend it is its length; although very short, it was fully developed and I didn't think it was lacking for anything. I would readily recommend An Island to anyone, but especially to those who liked Camus's The Stranger.
