Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Alice is only nine years old in 1910 when she is sent to the feared Coast Hospital lazaret at Little Bay in Sydney, a veritable prison where more patients are admitted than will ever leave. She is told that she's visiting her mother, who disappeared one day when Alice was two. Once there, A…lice learns her mother is suffering from leprosy and that she has the same disease.As she grows up, the secluded refuge of the lazaret becomes Alice's entire world, her mother and the other patients and medical staff her only human contact. The patients have access to a private sandstone-edged beach, their own rowboat, a piano and a library of books, but Alice is tired of the smallness of her life and is thrilled by the thought of the outside world. It is only when Guy, a Yuwaalaraay man wounded in World War I, arrives at The Coast, that Alice begins to experience what she has yearned for, as they become friends and then something deeper.Filled with vivid descriptions of the wild beauty of the sea cliffs and beaches surrounding the harsh isolation of the lazaret, and written in evocative prose, The Coast is meticulously researched historical fiction that holds a mirror to the present day. Heartbreaking and soul-lifting, it is a universal story of love, courage, sacrifice and resilience.'A compelling story of loss and liberty and the capacity of the human mind to transcend boundaries' - Meg Keneally, author of Fled 'Riveting and heart-wrenching' - Mirandi Riwoe, author of The Burnished Sun'Few books have touched me so deeply' - Suzanne Leal, author of The Deceptions A stunning novel of love and courage by the bestselling author of The Passengers.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Theres only one exit from a cul-de-sac.In the manicured suburbs of Northern Virginia, Jacquie is living the dream: a beautiful neighbourhood, a successful American husband, Brandon, and two happy children. But behind the doors of their family home, all is not as picturesque as it seems.A tr…ip home to her mothers alpaca farm on the rugged South Coastof New South Wales was supposed to be a simple holiday. Instead, the salt air clears her vision. Away from Brandons shadow and controlling behaviours, Jacquie and her children finally begin to breatheand she realises she can never go back.But Brandon is a man who refuses to lose. With the threat of international parental abduction charges hanging over her like a guillotine, Jacquie is trapped. If she stays, shes a criminal. If she returns, shes his prey.How far will a mother go to save her children from a picture-perfect life?PRAISE FOR CUL-DE-SAC:Tense, propulsive and deeply affecting. Shankari Chandran, bestselling and award-winning author of Chai Time at Cinnamon Gardens and Safe HavenThis is a lusciously rendered account of a womans fight to save herself and her children. From its first pages, this book gripped me and would not let go. Populated by characters who live and breathe and are guaranteed to linger long after the last page, Cul-de-Sac is yet more proof (as if we needed it) that Eleanor Limprecht is a master storyteller. Clear your schedule before starting this finely observed and impossibly taut book. My read of the year! Hayley Scrivenor, internationally bestselling author of Dirt Town and Girl FallingThis is a powerful novel that moves with assurance between the inner worlds of its characters and the hard facts of their daily lives. Miriam Sved, author of A Universe of Sufficient Size and Illuminated RuinsLimprecht is a master of tension and control, inviting us into the wonder and grit of two worlds in two hemispheres while quietly, almost imperceptibly, ratcheting up the stakes. In this way, Cul-de-Sac mirrors the mounting claustrophobia of its central character and performs a remarkable feat of embodied storytelling. Limprecht has an eye for everyday beauty, an ear for taut and sumptuous prose and a mind that delivers both to the reader with distinction. Cul-de-Sac re-affirms her many talents.

Soft cover. Condizione: Good. Book in good condition. Light tanning on page edges. Eleanor Limprecht was prompted to write this novel by a newspaper headline at the time of the birth of her first child when a baby was abandoned at Dandenong Hospital. A searingly complex portrayal of the person who is so frequently the villain in… our culture: the mother who abandons her child. Dark, honest and true, this is an extraordinary novel about parenthood and identity.

Paperback. Condizione: 2019. A near fine copy. 1. A stunning exploration of hope and desire, fear and control, this story is full of heart and heartbreak' ASHLEY HAY, author of The Railwayman's Wife 'A compelling novel about the bruises inflicted by fate and by ourselves, and the blessings to be found in resilience, determinatio…n, and love.' DEBRA ADELAIDE, author of The Household Guide to Dying Sarah and Hannah are on a cruise from San Diego, California to Sydney, Australia. Sarah, Hannah's grandmother, is returning to the country of her birth, a place she hasn't seen since boarding the USS Mariposa in 1945. Then she, along with countless other war brides, sailed across the Pacific to join the American servicemen they'd married during World War II. Now Hannah is the same age Sarah was when she made her first journey, and in hearing Sarah tell the story of her life, realises the immensity of what her grandmother gave up. The Passengers is a luminous novel about love: the journeys we undertake, the sacrifices we make and the heartache we suffer for love It is about how we most long for what we have left behind. And it is about the past - how close it can still feel - even after long passages of time. 'Two women, two generations, two countries, two journeys. Eleanor Limprecht gracefully navigates the crosscurrents of history and creates vibrant characters from the extraordinary true experiences of Australian war brides. Sarah and Hannah's urgent search for love and wholeness moved me in both senses: they touched my heart and I still feel I am churning across the Pacific with them. A deeply satisfying novel.' SUSAN WYNDHAM, former literary editor, The Sydney Morning Herald ---length:- '19.8'width:- '12.8'units:- Centimeters.
