Description

From the author of the acclaimed Cherry Beach comes a thrilling exploration of love and desire – obsessive, all-consuming and impossible to look away from.

On an ordinary day, two women meet on a train. Heloise — the older woman — lives with her boyfriend in Melbourne.

Lacey — the other woman — is from Aotearoa and studies the clouds.

What follows is anything but ordinary, a passionate affair that will consume them both in mismatched and maddening ways.

Propulsive and lyrical, Worry Doll examines desire, memory, and the delusion of love, perfect for fans of Hannah Kent and Helen Garner
