The time of the kingfishers

by David Watmough

Davey Bryant returns in this entertaining novel that gently probes social conventions about families, sexuality, friendship and loyalty. As the compassionate and witty narrator, Davey leads readers through the various upheavals in the life he shares with his partner Ken and their extended family of friends. At the heart of their journeys is a yearning for peace amid chaos, for happiness amid sorrow and heartbreak, and a plaintive desire for a past we all hope to recapture.
