Summary Note
World War II is over and Hiroshima lies in a heap of poisoned rubble when young Quaker Wesley Cunningham returns home to Almond Tree. He served as a stretcher-bearer; he?s seen his fair share of horror. Now he intends to build beautiful houses and to marry, having fallen in love with his neighbour?s daughter Beth Hardy. Beth has other plans. An ardent socialist, she is convinced the Party and Stalin?s Soviet Union hold the answers to all the world?s evils. She doesn?t believe in marriage, and in any case her devotion is to the cause. Beth?s ideals will exact a ruinously high price. But Wes will not stop loving her. Robert Hillman has written a number of books including his 2004 memoir The Boy in the Green Suit, which won the National Biography Award, and bestselling novel The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted. He lives in Melbourne. ?Robert Hillman entwines, with risk and skill, different and seemingly incompatible stories?He adds heft to the distinguished fiction of rural Australia.? Australian on The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted ?It is not often that a novel is both a great read and a sobering chronicle about the painful possibilities of human behaviour?Robert Hillman?s The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted is such a one.? Sydney Morning Herald on The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted.
