What is My Father the Whale about?

A vivid, beautifully imagined story about the lengths we'll go in order to belong 'Beautiful writing - tender and engaging. A wonderful novel' FAVEL PARRETT 'Gina Perry has written from the heart to create a story of tenderness, struggle and love' TONY BIRCH 'Paints the relationships between parents and children in all their complexity - the evasions that are practised out of love, or pragmatism, or self-delusion ... A debut novel of rare subtlety and vision' JOCK SERONG For nine-year-old Ruby, travelling the country with her charismatic father Mitch and busking for a living is the only life she's ever known. Mitch has been the centre of Ruby's world since she was a baby, and much as she's curious about her mother who died soon after Ruby was born, talk of her is taboo. When repairs to their ageing Kombi strand them in a small coastal town, Ruby is drawn to the town and its people and gains a glimpse of family life starkly different to her own. But when Mitch is ready to leave, Ruby is caught between her loyalty to her father and the safety of the place that's offered her a taste of normal life, causing a rift between them that will take years to heal. When Mitch sweeps back in tow
