Author Luke McQuillan has joined us on ITBR! We had an enticing conversation spanning from 1930's queer history to our modern-day administration and how easy it can be to fall into the rabbit hole on writing queer suffering and anxieties when the choice to write on joy is right there.
Luke opened up on how American politics eroded his mental health which led him to write his debut musical novel Love in the Light. Set in 1939, the musical novel follows ship navigator Alfred Hearn and lighthouse keeper James Spencer. You guessed it, sparks are gonna fly between these two!

Characters break out into song on the page in this cozy musical novel about finding love and finding your way. QR codes throughout the book let you listen to the songs as you read for an immersive, musical experience. The remote lighthouse could be the perfect harbor for a forbidden romance to flourish. If only the shipping company they both work for didn’t have other plans for it. If they lose the safety of the lighthouse, what would it mean for their blossoming relationship? With James by his side, Alfred must finally face navigating the rockiest sea of all: his own life.
