Summary
The author of the acclaimed novel The Last Summer of the Camperdowns returns with another rollicking, summertime family saga.When Spark, the rakish prodigal son, returns unannounced to the dilapidated family home on Maine's Monhegan Island, his arrival launches one unforgettable summer. During his absence, his gentle brother and shrewd, forked-tongued father, Pastor Ragnar, have been caring for Spark's son, Hally. A temperamental adolescent emboldened by tales of his father's mischief, Hally is careening through an identity crisis when he stuns his family by claiming to have had a spiritual vision. Though Spark is permanently dubious, Pastor Ragnar pounces on the chance to revitalize his flagging church. Hally is shoved into the spotlight, and in the frenzy that follows, this fragile family of fathers and sons is pushed to the brink.Narrated in larger-than-life, crackling prose by the charismatic family dog, The Miracle on Monhegan Island is another uproarious and outrageous must-read summer blockbuster from Elizabeth Kelly
