Description
Bernie is plunged into turmoil when her stepbrother is born, too vulnerable to leave, too vulnerable to risk loving. And she is confused when she falls in love with mosaicist Robin, and his soulful artworks and tales of Ethiopia.
All this because a family tragedy has left her resolved to remain adrift from emotional attachment.
Against her own instincts, she pushes her father away to his new wife, and pushes Robin away into the arms of a mutual friend. But as she reaches the pinnacle of her desired isolation, she realizes that she might have made a mistake. Can she learn to trust in a human connection that might just let her down?
From the writer of the “Engaging and Uplifting” (Daily Mail) Helen and the Grandbees, artist Alex Morrall explores themes of love and isolation in her novel, Adrift. Follow Bernie’s story from the coast to early 2000’s London.
