'The Pacific End is a beautiful first novel of unbearable longing, desire, and regret. Jacob Anthony Moniz is a natural stylist and singular talent; one feels this is only the beginning.'- Elizabeth McKenzie, author of The Dog of the NorthWhen Caleb Simão returns to his rural California hometown to prepare his childhood home for sale, he expects a brief visit. Instead, memories of Brandon Murphy resurface.Ten years earlier, Caleb and Brandon’s relationship grew on the margins of a community shaped by religious conservatism. What they built felt, at first, like a way out. It also made them vulnerable. Against mounting pressures, their bond fractured, ending in betrayal and a moment of violence neither one could fully process.Now, moving through the familiar landscapes of his past, Caleb is drawn back to that final year together. As he attempts to build a life elsewhere-and pursue a tentative new relationship-Caleb must confront questions of desire and repression, distance and return, and what it means to carry someone with you long after they’ve gone.Perfect for readers of Swimming in the Dark, Lie With Me, and Hell Is a World Without You.FINALIST - 2024 Autumn House Press Fiction Prize, judged by Kristin ArnettSEMI-FINALIST- 2024 Black Lawrence Press Big Moose Prize
