'Did you love him once?
I glimpsed in her momentary profile the hope and dreams of years before.
It was just after the war. Everything was differet. Love's a sort of trap. Then there was you.
And now, Mummy, do you...?
I never think.
'I do.
'Don't. He knows where we are, Beatie. I've changed the name. But he knew the address. The address is the same...
As Beatie Brown approaches her seventeenth birthday, the constraints of life in Edinburgh with her embittered mother are no longer comforting barriers to buffet against but obstacles to her emerging sexuality.
From precious, fragmented memories. Beatie knows that the anger and ambition of her Scottish-born Italian father, Bruno Bornati, an artist who deserted the family when she was a child, drive her too. Finding him becomes her passion. It is not enough though. Beatic's naivetￃﾩ has led her to believe that he will want a reconciliation. She is wrong.
Return Journey is a striking first novel from a remarkable new talent.
