n 1952, young Clementine and her mother travel from Sydney into the Australian bush to visit Aunty Rene and her daughter, Fan. Clementine is quickly fascinated by her wild, beautiful cousin, but the girls grow apart as they grow up, and while still a teenager, Fan gets pregnant and marries a man who abandons her, just as Clementine enters college. Clarke, author of the Printz Honor Book One Whole and Perfect Day (2007), offers a novel of unusual scope that opens and closes with scenes of a 67-year-old Clementine, who remains haunted by Fan’s tragic story. Steeped in the indelible sensory imagery of dreams and memories, the narrative alternates viewpoints as it gradually reveals the characters’ loss of innocence, resulting in Fan’s potent despair and Clementine’s guilt and grief as she moves away from her cousin and begins to shape her own adult life. Subtle and slow paced, Clarke’s novel demands patient readers, but those who lose themselves in the story will come away rewarded by the original, poetic language and Clarke’s achingly spot-on emotional insights.
