The Aquarian Fish Bowl (e-book) (used book) | Zeph | bookbook.eu

Description

Suburban Australia, through the ages of peace and love, freethinking and equality and unabashed capitalism. Years that, for many, were liberating and exciting... For Faith, a bright young woman, such changes in society, though, lead to confusion and retreat. Surrounded by a self-obsessed family, who cannot comprehend nor countenance her insight and intellect, she loses her way, and descends into introversion and 'mental illness.' This is not a story of depression, though. It is a tale of hope and acceptance, which explores the guilt heaped on those who just cannot cope with the world and its restrictive sense of order. Faith has the courage to break away, and, although this is painful, it is worth the struggle. Touching, thoughtful and absorbing, The Aquarian Fish Bowl reaches out to all those who give credence to their dreams... "Wonderfully odd people, events and encounters give this novel a strange attractiveness. For those who appreciate a touch of the unusual." Rebecca Green, Melbourne Herald Sun "Zeph's first novel is full of fresh ideas, deep insights and an authentic depth ...a beautiful read and a wonderful addition to our body of literature." Mammad Aidani, playwright and author
