The 1906 earthquake upends their eccentric routines, and they take refuge with a capricious patron and a group of artists looking to find meaning after the disaster. THE BOOK OF LOST LIGHT explores family loyalty and betrayal, Finnish folklore, the nature of time and theater, and what it takes to recover from calamity and build a new life from the ashes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRon Nyren's fiction has appeared in \u003ci\u003eThe Paris Review, The Missouri Review, The North American Review, Glimmer Train Stories, Mississippi Review, Wigleaf, \u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003e100 Word Story\u003c\/i\u003e, and his stories have been shortlisted for the O.
