Worry Doll - Laura McPhee-Browne

From the author of the acclaimed Cherry Beach comes a thrilling exploration of love and desire - obsessive, all-consuming, and impossible to look away from. On an ordinary day, two women meet on a train. Heloise - the older woman - lives with her boyfriend in Melbourne. Lacey - the other woman - is from Aotearoa and studies the clouds. What follows is anything but ordinary, a passionate affair that will consume them both in mismatched and maddening ways. Propulsive and lyrical, Worry Doll examines desire, memory, and the delusion of love.
