A moving, coming-of-age tale that follows three young boys through adolescence into adulthood, each trying to make sense of a world turned upside down.

Poland - 1939

The German army sweeps across Poland intent on the destruction of an entire people. In a small Polish town, 10-year-old Piotr Kowalczyk's idyllic world will be forever destroyed.

Croatia - 1944

Young Mate Androic flees to the freedom of the West as the communist Partisans move ever closer to Zagreb.

Australia - 1980

A small boy, already struggling to cope with the loss of a parent, is confronted by a gruesome murder.

From the tranquil foothills of the Carpathian Mountains in southern Poland, to the Balkans and a simmering-feud centuries in the making, to the streets of inner-city Melbourne where histories collide.

These events, generations and worlds apart, are interwoven in a poignant story of grief, hatred, revenge and finally - closure.

Industry Reviews

White weaves a tale of unspeakable horrors, terrible sadness and grief that never really can fully heal.

... a powerful story told with great compassion.

Emily-Jane Hills Orford

Closure clearly demonstrates White as being an impressively gifted storyteller.

White's writing is stunning. I look forward to reading more books by him in the future.

Urban Book Review

Skillful characterizations weave together with a plot of heartbreaking emotional depth. The exponential, generational effect of loss and revenge are exquisitely captured in this gripping novel.
