Between Worlds | In Conversation with Rosie Dub
About
Some bonds are too powerful to be broken, even by death . . .
Fern lives on Bruny Island in Tasmania, with her partner, Adam and their young daughter, Freya. Adam spends his time protecting the old-growth forests, while Fern is a herbalist who no longer heals. Instead, she’s filled with a growing sense of foreboding.
When a stranger tells Fern she must resolve the divide between herself and Freya, she dismisses him, but in the wake of a tragedy, she’s forced to reconsider his advice. Seeking answers, Fern and Freya travel to the home of a renowned past life therapist in the foothills of the French Pyrenees. Here she begins delving into the past and is drawn deep into an historic drama that threatens to possess her.
At once a metaphysical story and a celebration of the magic of everyday life, Between Worlds explores grief, healing, and the complications of love between a mother and her daughter.
‘A compelling and powerful story of how past lives can shape and shadow the present.’
Kate Forsyth
