Beschreibung:
Gail Jones, geboren in Westaustralien, unterrichtet Englisch, Kommunikation und Kulturwissenschaft an der University of Western Australia. Ihr erster Roman, "Black Mirror", wurde mit dem Nita B. Kibble Award ausgezeichnet.
On a radiant day in Sydney, four people converge on Circular Quay, site of the iconic Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Each of the four is haunted by secrets from the past: Ellie is preoccupied by her sexual experiences as a girl, James by a tragedy for which he feels responsible, Catherine by the loss of her beloved brother in Dublin and Pei Xing by her imprisonment during China's Cultural Revolution. Told over the course of a single Saturday, Five Bells vividly describes four lives which chime and resonate. By night-time, when Sydney is drenched in a rainstorm, each life has been transformed.
