Description
After Story by Larissa Behrendt explores the complex relationships between family, culture and storytelling. When Jasmine takes her mother Della on a tour of England's literary sites, she hopes to reconnect with her past and find closure. However, their journey is disrupted when another child goes missing, forcing them to confront the unresolved tragedy that has haunted their community for 25 years. As Jasmine delves into the world of her favourite authors, including Jane Austen and Virginia Woolf, Della finds inspiration in the wisdom of her own culture. But as they navigate the power of words and the stories that are left untold, they must also face the painful truths that have been hidden for so long. A powerful and engrossing novel, After Story celebrates the enduring impact of literature on our lives and the quiet spaces where truth and healing can be found.
