I'm sorry, I haven't read this novel specifically, so I can't tell you the exact plot.
The plot of 'Light from Distant Stars, a Novel' might involve themes related to space, given the mention of distant stars in the title. It could be about scientific exploration, the search for something in the far reaches of the universe, or perhaps the emotional and philosophical journey of characters as they look towards the light from those far - off stars.
Since I'm not familiar with the novel 'Light from Distant Stars', I can only make some general speculations. It might be a story that combines science fiction elements with human relationships. Maybe the characters are astronauts or scientists who are studying the light from distant stars and during this process, they encounter various challenges, both in their scientific research and in their personal lives. The light from the distant stars could symbolize hope, mystery, or the unknown that they are trying to uncover.
