But all of this was mere finger food when compared to the banquet on offer in reading THE LAST LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER (2020). Who could forget? Well, how about everyone, including me most days. Only last week I got speaking to a mad keen stamp-collector who used to visit lighthouses in the 70’s as part of his role working as a supplies clerk for the Australian Commonwealth Lighthouse Service.Īnd who could forget my quirk-filled short story PIANO MAN about two bickering lighthouse keepers? It got published back in 2018 in the less than prestigious, less than acclaimed but quite colorful BALLOONS LIT JOURNAL. I’ve heard so many amazing things about the Virginia Wolf penned 1927 novel TO THE LIGHTHOUSE I’m curious to read it. One of my most favorite episodes of the 1960’s television show Lost in Space was titled THE HAUNTED LIGHTHOUSE. A lot of people were raving about it at the time but, putting it politely, I failed to see what all the fuss was about and said so in a post I named LOST IN THE FOG. It starred Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson.

(For the trivia buffs – an identically titled and similarly themed but otherwise completely different UK movie was made back in 2016). Last year I went along to a film called THE LIGHTHOUSE. No, I’m probably referring more to lighthouses I’ve seen in films or read about in books. Well, maybe not actual lighthouses – unless you count my sole visit to the one on Bruny Island in Tasmania two years ago.
