FOR PUBLIC POLICY
The Benjamin Center for Public Policy Initiatives is pleased to announce the selection of the 2020 One Book, One New Paltz: “Ocean at the End of the Lane,” by Neil Gaiman.
This story follows a middle-aged man who returns as an adult to his hometown to attend a funeral and, while there, remembers a fantastical series of events from his childhood. Are these memories of real space and time? Or are they a child’s way of making sense of a scary world? Part reality, part fantasy, this haunting story takes us deep into a young boy’s inner world, and brings us to reflect on our own understanding of reality, memory, childhood, and what it means to be human.
