In the heat of a long summer Ned hunts rabbits in a river valley, hoping the pelts will earn him enough money to buy a small boat.
His two brothers are away at war, their whereabouts unknown. His father and older sister struggle to hold things together on the family orchard, Limberlost.
Desperate to ignore it all-to avoid the future rushing towards him-Ned dreams of open water.
As his story unfolds over the following decades, we see how Ned's choices that summer come to shape the course of his life, the fate of his family and the future of the valley, with its seasons of death and rebirth.
The third novel by the award-winning author of Flames and The Rain Heron, Limberlost is an extraordinary chronicle of life and land: of carnage and kindness, blood ties and love.
Arnott masterfully explores masculinity, brotherhood and familial love...Limberlost is another astonishing book from one of Australia's most electrifying young authors.' Books+Publishing
'In Limberlost magic lies in lyrical language and the powerfully real characters brought to life through it...This is a novel about the deepest of emotions, about love, the fear of loss, and about joy.' Age/SMH
This is a book about violence and fear, but there's a great tenderness, too...Not a word is wasted. Limberlost is powerful, lyrical and packs a hell of an emotional punch. It's one of the best books I've read this year.' Claire Nichols, ABC Arts
'A luminously told, whole-life story of a young boy discovering how to be his own man...Arnott has an eye and an ear for description that can elevate otherwise quiet moments to something genuinely transcendent.' Melissa Harrison, Guardian (UK)
