NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this “raw and bittersweet” (Publishers Weekly) queer coming-of-age companion novel to Last Night at the Telegraph Club, a high school senior gets shipped off to grandma for a party gone wrong, but what should have been a forgettable summer becomes anything but.

“Full of yearning, ponderances about art, and what it means to be an artist.”—NPR

“Queer in the best of ways—messy, raw, heartbreaking, freeing, and imperfect.”—Autostraddle

Aria Tang West was looking forward to a summer on Martha’s Vineyard with her best friends—one last round of sand and sun before college. But after a graduation party goes wrong, Aria’s parents exile her to California to stay with her grandmother, artist Joan West. Aria expects boredom, but what she finds is Steph Nichols, her grandmother’s gardener. Soon, Aria is second-guessing who she is and what she wants to be, and a summer that once seemed lost becomes unforgettable—for Aria, her family, and the working-class queer community Steph introduces her to. It’s the kind of summer that changes a life forever.

And decades after the end of Last Night at the Telegraph Club, this companion novel also offers a glimpse into Lily and Kath’s lives since 1955.

Reseñas de la crítica

A Best Book of the Year: NPR, Parents magazine, and BuzzFeed

"Full of yearning, ponderances about art and what it means to be an artist, and self-revelation, A Scatter of Light has a simmering intensity that makes it hard to put down."—NPR

"The intimate details and complex relationships of this perfectly rendered story of first love between two young women is reminiscent of Judy Blume's classic Forever."—Parents Magazine

"Beautifully rendered and instantly captivating. Malinda Lo writes queer desire like no other."Diva Magazine

"Raw and bittersweet . . . [an] expansive tale of yearning, self-discovery, and first love."Publishers Weekly, starred review

"Aria’s story is . . . about what it means to be an artist, a friend, a daughter and a granddaughter, and about how identities of all kinds can converge and crystallize as part of the process of growing up."—BookPage, starred review

"Tells the powerful story of one young woman's life-changing summer of self-discovery. . . . Both newcomers and longtime fans of Lo's work should enjoy this narrative of a young woman coming to understand herself and her wants better."Shelf Awareness, starred review

"An excellent coming-of-age and coming-out story. Characters are complicated and messy but in a realistic and relatable way. The story is driven by Aria’s truthful narration, which is beautifully reflective of an 18-year-old at that time . . . A must-have.”School Library Journal

"A Scatter of Light is not one but many love letters—to art, to first crushes, and to friendships that span decades and ground you while letting you grow."Booklist

"This deeply perceptive bildungsroman thoughtfully explores several absorbing topics, but first and foremost it is an intimate, exhilarating story of first love."—The Horn Book

"A Scatter of Light is a book of crashes (and crushes) with effects that reverberate across time. It is queer in the best of ways—messy, raw, heartbreaking, freeing, and imperfect."—Autostraddle
