Appearances
Yes.
We've had Michael Pedersen's Muckleflugger, Douglas Stewart's John of John, Jonathan Miles' Eradication, which had feral goats on an island.
And then late last year, there was Garrett Carr's The Boy from the Sea, Charlotte McConaughey's Wild Dark Shore.
So islands everywhere.
And this one, it's set on a windswept remote island off the coast of Tasmania.
It has a lighthouse that's now automated, but it's now a weather station.
a research island, and a woman named Miranda, who's a marine scientist, and her husband Richard are heading there as this story opens.
So who are these people, Rowena, and why are they off to this island?
And I understand there was a real ad for a six-month residency on a remote island that Chris Neen saw and both thought, oh my goodness, who would do that?
But also what a great fictional setting.
Fictional setting, yeah.
What could possibly go wrong?
Well, sort of everything.
And although this is a story, Rowana, about this windy, dramatic island, steep, difficult paths, plenty of birds, beautifully, really beautifully described natural world, it's the sea that defines Miranda, though, isn't it?
Yeah, very much.
But it has been disrupted.
So this is a woman whose working life had been as a marine biologist.
She felt most comfortable in the sea.
She sort of feels uncomfortable in her body and it's a body that's changing.
She's at menopause and she feels like her waist is thickening, her skin is changing and that she's sort of slightly lumbered down by the air and by gravity.
