There's many a lyrical moment in this novel
it's a lovely telling.
I'll be looking out for more of Molly Murn.

A story of family, history, love, turmoil, life and death. Pearl, her mother, Diana, and sister Lucy return to Kangaroo Island after the death of her grandmother Nell. They are all dealing with their emotions in regard to their relationship with Nell, and the island, and they find her treasure box, and a story she has written. Even though there was some beautiful writing I found the structure of the book a bit disjointed and it was frustrating at times.
