Shifting between love affairs, friendships, and enmities of multiple generations, this rich and complex saga follows a life spent on the water as Carlos, an orphan living in a Spanish hacienda, runs away to sea. Sprawling in its themes and geography-from the Golfo de Valencia to Calcutta, from London to Sydney, and from South Dakota to Broome-this narrative concerns the wanton destructiveness of human beings and their slender opportunities for redemption.

Industry Reviews

A rambunctious, unwieldy novel . . . there is huge energy and pace in [it] . . . serious themes are woven into the strands of story . . . The exuberance of Equator, however, despite its sombre themes, is its saving grace."" - Australian Book Review

""Reading Equator is like immersing yourself in a performance of a butterfly dance while being mesmerised by history . . . a unique voice . . . inventive and funny and very engaging."" - Readings magazine
