Bluebottle by Belinda Castles

I really enjoyed this story, I think mostly because the characters were so good. Three siblings growing up with a very unpredictable, probably mentally unwell, father and the resulting impact of that childhood as it reverberated through their lives, each in a different way. It’s told both from the past and the present and has a sinister mystery threaded through each storyline. #ozfiction #stellaprize
