Description
Frances's pace quickens as she surveys her garden, where a woman in a long pink dress and wide hat appears among the leafy depths. A sense of time standing still washes over her, as if space has been foreshortened. In this rare and beguiling ghost story, Michelle de Kretser explores the complexities of human connection and belonging.
Frances's life with Charlie is one of adjustment and discovery in their adopted city. Their world feels alien, yet they find meaning in the perfectly chosen words that spin out of everyday moments. This haunting tale by a masterful writer weaves together the threads of love, identity, and place to create a profound and moving narrative.
