Beginning in the sulphur mines of Sicily over a century ago, Black Mountain
takes you on a journey through time and back again. When a boy sold into slavery
finds the courage to escape his brutal life, he is saved by a mysterious
stranger, who raises the boy as his own. Renamed Cesare Montenero after Sicily's
own black mountain', Mount Etna, the boy grows up to discover that his rescue
was no accident, that his physical strength is unnatural, and that he has more
in common with his saviour than he could have imagined. And when he meets the
enigmatic Celeste, he suspects for the first time that he many not be alone.
Based on factual events and ranging through Italy, Paris and the rural fringes
of coastal Australia, Black Mountain is a haunting exploration of what it means
to be human.
