About the Book

Stephen Newman's memoir Where the Lantern Hangs is a bright tapestry of world travel, personal discovery, and the connections that define our sense of belonging. Newman chronicles a relentless pursuit of new horizons, both literal and metaphorical, as he navigates a life perpetually on the move, underpinned by the loving presence of his wife, Jocelyne.
The memoir unfolds through a series of vignettes covering sixty years, each chapter a window on a different phase of Newman's life.
Between living next to the Third Avenue El in Manhattan in 1950 and the cobblestoned courtyard of his home in Paris in 2010, you encounter the startling facts in his quest for a birth certificate, the lure of rural Uganda, rainy days and nights in the north of Norway and the thrill of working in the theater in London, each locale icaptured with a cinematic quality.
Central to the memoir is the poignant portrayal of Newman's relationship with Jocelyne. Her unwavering support serves as a counterbalance to his restlessness and their life together is depicted with a tenderness underscoring the depth of their bond.
Newman's reflections on the places and people that shaped his journey are interspersed with philosophical musings on identity and the passage of time.
Where the Lantern Hangs is not just a travelogue but a meditation on the question of where we come from and where we belong. The memoir's title, a nod to the welcoming glow of a lantern that Jocelyne places in a window box when he returns from his frequent trips, symbolizes the presence of love amidst a life of restless motion.
Stephen Newman has written a beautiful homage to the wanderlust that drives us to explore the world and the enduring connections that anchor us. It is a compelling read for anyone who has felt the pull of distant shores and the comforting embrace of home.
Told with humor, Where the Lantern Hangs is, above all, a tribute to the power of shared adventure. It reminds us that while places may change, the true center of life is found in the relationships we nurture and the memories we carry with us.
