The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman is a dark, magical fantasy novel about memory, childhood, and the thin line between reality and imagination.
It follows a man who returns to his hometown and recalls strange and haunting events from his youth—when he befriended a mysterious girl named Lettie Hempstock, whose “ocean” holds ancient, otherworldly powers. Blending myth and nostalgia, the book explores innocence, fear, and the power of storytelling.
