The Eldest Girl
O książce
The Eldest Girl is a family drama spanning three generations. It moves between the 1960s
with Tom, fresh off the boat from England who falls in love with the seemingly unattainable
Ngahere, and 2010 where Cassius, their son, is grieving the death of his wife, Mere, and
barely able to parent their children. When Mere's twin sister returns home a successful
film producer and her troubled director husband leaves, she enlists Cassius's help with her
three children. Tensions grow when Kiri, Cassius's daughter, becomes jealous and rebels,
a daughter Tom never knew he had turns up, and the pressures of juggling a film project, a
drunk husband and children increase. But when Tom has a heart attack and family secrets
emerge, relationships are examined, and connections are retied.
