'An engrossing and vivid novel brimming with compassion for nature.' - Anna Iltnere, The Sea Library Magazine.
Nicky feels her life is falling apart when she receives an unwanted gift from her estranged mother and is gripped by memories of the months her family spent living on a remote island raucous with birdlife. There'd been a reckoning. Life was never the same afterwards and while for Nicky a falling gum leaf had marked the beginning of a great unravelling, the gift and a phone call in 2000 laid down a challenge.
Beneath the Wild Fig Tree interweaves these two transformative years into a kaleidoscopic coming of age story that unfolds across Sydney, Adelaide and Tasmania. It is a novel that will particularly appeal to readers who enjoy strong characters, the tang of the ocean and a vivid sense of place.
