Overview
"This ambitious novel has earned Susan Elderkin the distinction from Granta as one of the ""Best Young British Writers Under 40."" Cressida Connolly, in The Daily Telegraph (U.K.), raved, ""Part fable, part coming-of-age story, [The Voices] attempts to describe the demise of an entire culture through only a handful of lives. Certainly brilliant... Beautifully written, melancholy, fey, angry and utterly absorbing."" In the remote, bloodred dust of the Australian bush, thirteen-year-old Billy Saint turns to the stark landscape and mesmerizing spirits of the native Aborigines. He is befriended by an enigmatic Aboriginal girl, Maisie, and slowly comes to realize he is meddling with powers far beyond his control. Ten years later, Billy lies in a hospital bed, recovering from gruesome wounds of mysterious origin. Shifting between his hospital stay and the childhood that led him there, The Voices unfolds into a haunting exploration of the relationship between a white man, the land he loves, and the native spirits of the country struggling to be heard before they are lost forever."
