Beneath the Wild Fig Tree (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781763588608)

On a Bass Strait island, across Hobart, Sydney and Adelaide, a family drama unfolds. A decision must be made - to forgive or to nurture a grudge.

A traveller obsessed with the ocean. A conflicted archaeologist. A girl who thinks parents should never be trusted. Beneath the Wild Fig Tree interweaves 1984 and the year 2000 into a vibrant story about coming of age, betrayal and self-discovery, grief and happiness, and the luminosity of the natural world.

'An engrossing and vivid novel brimming with compassion for nature.' - Anna Iltnere, The Sea Library Magazine.

'In my 20+ years as an editor, I've rarely seen such talent from a new writer.' Jessica Perini, Senior Editor, Sydney
