A Wish in the Dark
Book • 2020
In 'A Wish in the Dark', Christina Soontornvat crafts a compelling fantasy inspired by Victor Hugo’s 'Les Misérables'.
The story is set in the city of Chattana, where all light is created by the Governor, who rules with an iron fist.
Pong, born in Namwon Prison, dreams of freedom represented by the magical lights.
After escaping, he realizes the world outside is just as unfair.
Nok, the prison warden’s daughter, is determined to capture Pong to restore her family’s honor.
As Nok hunts Pong, she uncovers secrets that challenge her beliefs about justice and inequality.
The book delves into themes of social justice, poverty, and the struggle for freedom in a vivid and magical world.
