Description
''Mrs Shoddy is devastated when a bushfire on her country property kills her beloved horses. Living alone, and unable to cope, she is committed to a mental hospital where she has nothing but the memories in her head, and the words she weaves around them, to keep her from going insane. She conjures up her long-lost husband Martin, transforms a deluge into music and, among other marvels, discovers compassion in the heartless as she faces her future. This hope-obsessed novel, with its savage vignettes of small-town malice, is a hymn of praise to human tenderness, the power of memory and the power of music. It confirms Rodney Hall's status as one of our finest and most acclaimed writers.''
