Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945); Australian Fiction

A father who has been abducted by aliens; a mother who sees the spirits of dead people; a sister who communicates with angry dogs; and 29-year-old Noah Grey, whose life has gone off the rails.

In Tasmania, strange lights appear in the skies every summer, signalling we're part of something bigger than the world of our worries. Bigger even than our hopes. When economic pressures force the Greys to live together for one season

the first time in 12 years since Noah left home after college

tensions are high.

Things get weird as locals become increasingly convinced the residents at this Hobart address have been targeted for alien abduction. As the summer unfolds Noah accepts things will never be normal again, even though his measure is the simplest of all. Family love.

Brendan Colley's The Season for Flying Saucers is strange, alluring and tender

a love letter to hope.
