Tourmaline

A novel by the 1979 Patrick White Literary Award winner. It is the story of a comatose Australian country town and its people, and an exploration of questions of life and death, individual will and faith. Once there was water and gold in Tourmaline, but now it is a place of heat, dust and decay.

The Merry-Go-Round in the Sea allows us a precious glimpse into a simpler kind of childhood in a country that no longer exists.In 1941, Rob Coram is six. The war feels far removed from his world of aunties and cousins and the beautiful, dry landscape of Geraldton in Western Australia. But when his favorite, older cousin, Rick, leaves to join the army, the war takes a step closer.When Rick returns from the war several years later, he has changed and Rob feels betrayed. The old merry-go-round that represents Rob’s dream of utopia (the security of his family and of the land that is his home) begins to disintegrate before his eyes.
