A proposito di questo titolo

Marnie is 63 and downwardly mobile. Her middle-class marriage is long gone, her only child more or less estranged. She's living in a granny flat behind a stranger's house.

Still, things could be worse. She likes her new boss, Trinh, and her flat has a leadlight window depicting a galleon in full sail. Also, her daughter Lenny has just brought Marnie's adored grandchildren to stay.

She's also brought her repellent boyfriend and raging drug habit, so nothing new there. But this time it's different. This time Marnie can see with absolute clarity the danger the children are in.

And this time – she's going to do something about it.

This is the revelatory story of an ordinary woman who will let nothing, not even the law, stand in the way of her grandchildren's safety. Simply, elegantly told and utterly compelling, Edenhope is an adventure for those who believe adventure can come from anywhere. And it is a love story for those who understand that love can be found everywhere.

Recensioni della critica

'A moving story about one woman's unconditional love, the kindness of strangers, and what's right as well as what's wrong with the way we live now.' (Amanda Lohrey, Miles Franklin Award-winning author of The Labyrinth)
'Edenhope's tenderness, harrowing truth and everyday beauty makes it one of the must-read fiction books of the year.' (Australian Arts Review)
'If Edenhope was a film, it would be edge-of-the-seat stuff, a two-tissue tale with all the feels … Le Nay's understanding of character enriches not only the major players but also the many and varied country people who come to the little family's aid …' (NZ Listener)
'I loved the short, very simply, but expertly written chapters. I loved the fact that the main character was a woman in her sixties … I enjoyed that her age and upbringing gave her wise takes on people and the world. I loved all of the side characters, even the unpleasant ones … And I loved the relationships … [Edenhope] has real heart, and I would highly recommend it.' (Good Reading)
