Summary: When Daniel, a young Australian lawyer based in Los Angeles, is called back to his family's farm, he has to contend not only with a philandering father and a sick mother, but also the burden of memory. He arrives in the heat of his parent's conflict with Sharen - some-time tenant and his father's ex-lover - who is now squatting on family land. As Daniel is increasingly drawn to Sharen, tensions spark events that will change them all. With a keen eye for the Australian landscape and set against the workings of a rural horse farm, Wedding Bush Road is a stunning novel about the choices we make, the regrets that linger, and the unquestionable, inevitable pull of home.
