Overview

An engrossing and vivid novel brimming with compassion for nature . - Anna Ittenere, The Sea Library Magazine. A family drama unfolds across Australia and New Zealand. There is betrayal but its not clear who should be forgiven and who should forgive. Wheeler relishes freedom, music and the sea. Freya is engrossed with the past, and Nicky takes solace in nature, believing that parents should never be trusted, particularly after they move from Hobart to a far-flung island, the night sky raucous with birdlife, the ownership of the island contentious. Migrating birds return and an eclectic assortment of visitors arrive, but all the time, beneath the surface of their everyday life, theres a fast, dark river flowing, full of secrets, betrayals and lies. Theres about to be a reckoning. Life after the island will never be the same, and while for Nicky disaster begins with a leaf slowly falling in 1984, a fateful phone call in 2000 while shes working in Sydney will challenge her values along with her perspective on the past. Beneath the Wild Fig Tree interweaves these two transformative years into a kaleidoscopic coming of age story that explores the complexities of relationships, the interplay of grief and happiness, transience and interconnectedness, while at the same time celebrating the luminosity of the natural world. This is a novel that will particularly appeal to readers who enjoy strong characters, a hint of intrigue, the tang of the ocean and a vibrant sense of place.  In my 20+ years as an editor, Ive rarely seen such talent from a new writer. Jessica Perini, Senior Editor, Sydney
