#1 New York Times Bestseller
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman, a haunting novel that explores the awesome power of memory, friendship, and sacrifice―one of ten classic Gaiman works repackaged with elegant original watercolor art by acclaimed artist Henry Sene Yee
"A novel about the truths--some wonderful, some terrible--that children know and adults do not." --Time Magazine
Neil Gaiman's haunting masterpiece explores the blurred boundaries between childhood wonder and adult reality. When a man returns to his childhood home, he reconnects with an old friend and discovers that their youthful adventures held far deeper magic than memory suggested. This literary gem weaves fantasy and nostalgia into a meditation on loss, friendship, and the transformative power of imagination. Perfect for readers seeking thought-provoking fiction that lingers long after the final page.
Returning to his childhood home to attend a funeral, a middle-aged man is drawn back to a place once alive with monsters and magic; to a past where the impossible is all too frighteningly real . . .
A haunting meditation on memory, wonder, friendship, and sacrifice, The Ocean at the End of the Lane, which was named "Book of the Year" by the UK National Book Awards, is a groundbreaking triumph of storytelling as delicate as a butterfly's wing and as menacing as a knife in the dark.
