The Signature of All Things
Elizabeth Gilbert (Allen & Unwin, $36.99)
The author of Eat, Pray, Love returns to fiction, in this epic tale that spans the 18th and 19th centuries. It tells the story of the eccentric, intelligent, yet unfortunate-looking Alma Whittaker.
Born into a wealthy family of horticulturists, she is a well-educated misfit, who finds love nearing the age of 50.
Their complex relationship, Alma’s passion for moss – which sees her as a contemporary of some of the greatest minds of the time – combined with Elizabeth Gilbert’s artful writing, makes this a dazzling, yet subtle novel that is well worth the read.
