Watershed

As Eve and Marconi Beunetti eke out a living from their block on the Murray River, Eve is caught in a current that is slowly pulling her under. In her attempts to cope with the loss of their son David, she grabs at anything that helps keep her afloat - anything except her husband, who would pump the dying river dry to save his land and marriage. Both must come to terms with the price the river exacts. A story of loss and redemption, Watershed is an iconic novel of contemporary Australian life that is told with a captivating blend of poignancy and sardonic humour.
