The Vigilance of Stars, a novel set in Portland and on a lake in central Maine, was chosen by Lily King to be one of two books read by participants in the Maine Humanities Council's "Read ME" summer program.

"A literary treat" that will "resonate with readers long after the telling." (Maine Sunday Telegram)


Kate Christensen, author of THE GREAT MAN and THE LAST CRUISE, writes: "THE VIGILANCE OF STARS is so compellingly readable, and O’Donnell is such a clear, deft writer, I turned pages, utterly engaged, until the unspeakably moving, shivery-beautiful ending moved me to tears I didn’t see coming. This novel’s pleasures are of the rarest and truest kind: a group of characters I grew to love, engaged in the most profound and quotidian, complex and simple human experiences—unflinchingly honest, absolutely gorgeous. Oh wow. I loved this book."
It can be purchased from Unsolicited Press, address below, or at your local bookstore.
