The pure weight of the heart - Antonella Gambotto

"In the mirror, a man facing away, shouldered as if yoked, his height almost defying the frame. I stared at him closely. His brow and jaw were broad, his eyes slow-flowing, trickling over surfaces, through the walls of the inconsequential conversations. My tongue was dusty with rare sugars, and I swallowed. He was densely muscular and tan, his throat a living sculpture, powerful, the warmest isthmus. In his face, the impressions of a hard lifetime." From birth, Angelica is destined to fall in love with an angel. At ten, her blissful childhood is destroyed by the death of her father. Only the stars in the sky at night give her hope. Years later, the adult Angelica, beautiful and gifted, and still a student of the stars, drifts through a world of glamour, power, and cruelty, until the night she finally finds her angel, in the heart of the extravagance she has come to despise. From the pretensions of the London literary set to social climbing in the world of well-heeled Sydney matrons, Gambotto-Burke's razor-sharp prose exposes the essential folly at the heart of modern society. Erotic, exhilarating, and provocative, The Pure Weight of the Heart is an unforgettable debut.
