Listen deeply now, if you remember how and why.
On a hot October afternoon, a girl walks barefoot out of the Wimmera desert,
near the small town of Gatyekarr. She finds sanctuary with Beth, a regenerative
farmer and collector of seeds, devoted to bringing her family's farm back to
life. The arrival of the mysterious 'desert girl' unsettles the community and
old tensions erupt. The longer the girl stays silent, the more volatile the town
becomes. Who is she and what does her presence mean?
The Desert Knows Her Name is an exquisite novel that speaks to a deep longing
for connection with the land, and the silences that persist in contemporary
Australia.
