Details
A debut novel of love, loss, hanuting absences and dispossession, told with artistry and elegance.
The tower is where Nain found the old miller hanging from the rafters with all the life of one of his old floury smocks. Jack Cucu, back from Burma with more than the fever in his brain, believed he was the senital of the tower until he died. And now the tower’s getting tarted up for Derrick Dallas, flashing his money around.
A derelict tower is brought alive through the stories of those who have spent their lives in its presence; it is coloured by clan and community, bound by lines of blood and tales which cut across generational divides.
