Fromthe Stella shortlisted author of Poum and Alexandre, this is aheartwarming novel about longing, absence and the people we unexpectedly cometo love.
Aftermany years spent living in Seoul, a young man called Harold drifts back toAustralia and rents a room above a fish and chip shop called The Sea& Us. Who he meets and what he experiences there propels himto question his own yearnings and failings, and to fight for meaning and asense of place that can only be reached by facing what is lost.
By turns electric, tender, and hopeful, TheSea & Us is a gem of literary imagination. Catherinede Saint Phalle brilliantly captures disparate characters and theircommon human desire for community and connection. Long after thelast page closes, 'we can hear the bell tinkle. Someone wants somefish and chips.'
'Mesmerising. Full of love and charm...beautifully written.' - Herald Sun
'This novel by Catherine de Saint Phalle resembles a beautiful symphony...a story that is exquisitely written. Novels of this quality are a rare and pleasurable event.' - ArtsHub, 5 star review
