Description

On a remote island in the Indian Ocean, Sisi de Mathilde's life is turned upside down when she discovers she is pregnant after losing her partner. As the community faces extinction due to rising sea levels and declining birth rates, Sisi must navigate the tension between preserving traditional ways of life and embracing modern possibilities.

As tensions rise, Sisi finds herself at the forefront of a struggle to save her home and people. With her unborn child's future hanging in the balance, she must make difficult choices that will determine the course of her community's history.

This powerful novel explores themes of identity, resilience, and the human relationship with the natural world. Lorraine Wilson's evocative prose brings to life a world on the brink of change, where hope and grief are inextricably linked.
