Picking up her pace, Frances saw a woman in the leaf-hung depths of
the garden. She wore a long pink dress and a wide hat, and her skin
was a creamy white. There came upon Frances a sensation that
sometimes overtook her when she was looking at a painting: space
was foreshortened, time stood still. When Frances met Charlie at a
party in Melbourne he was married with a young son. Now she and
Charlie live in Sydney with her rescue dog Rod and an unshakeable
sense that they have tipped the world on its axis. They are still
getting their bearings - of each other and of their adopted city.
Everything is alien, unfamiliar, exotic: haunting, even. Worlds of
meaning spin out of perfectly chosen words in this rare, beguiling
and brilliant ghost story by Miles Franklin Literary Award-winning
writer Michelle de Kretser.
