Gate of Tears

Gate of Tears 
"Most of the migrants would never live more than thirty miles from the Harbour. Their offspring would be children of the suburbs."

When Bronwyn Huguet sails in the Rarotonga from Liverpool in 1946 with five-year-old Tristan to be reunited with her Australian husband Robert in Sydney, she does so with mixed feelings. Her husband has become a changed man. He carries a shameful secret from his wartime service in the Merchant Navy, which is gnawing away at his soul.

Once they are together, Robert, Bronwyn and Tristan face increasing isolation, not only from their neighbours and Robert's family, but also from each other. In their separate ways, each of them seeks consolation in the strangely numinous bushland.

Gate of Tears is set in Sydney's northern suburbs in the years immediately following the Second World War.
