Shes juggling a demanding job as an anesthesiologist, a disintegrating marriage, her young kids, and a needy lover. And most particularly shes managing her histrionically unstable mother, who repeatedly threatens to kill herself. But this year, its different. When her mother calls just before Christmas, she doesnt follow the usual script. Instead, she tells Layla that theres something she needs to tell her about her much-loved father. In response, Layla drops everything to rush to her childhood home on the wild west coast of Tasmania. Shes determined to finally confront her mother - and find out what really happened to her father - and lay some demons to rest.The Heart is a Star is an engrossing, lyrical and powerfully absorbing novel about the complicated and beautiful messiness of midlife; about the ways in which we navigate an intricate, complicated world; and about how we can uncover our true selves when we are forced to face the myths that make us.
