Description
The Mystery of Silence
In the hauntingly beautiful novel The World Without Us, author Mireille Juchau weaves a tale of secrets, survival, loss, and renewal. At the heart of the story is Tess Müller, a young girl who has inexplicably stopped speaking. Her silence baffles everyone around her, including her parents, teachers, and younger sister. But the bigger mystery for Tess and her sister is the strange behavior of their mother, Evangeline.
Every day, Evangeline pushes an empty pram and returns home wet, muddy, and disheveled. Where is she going? What is she doing? These are questions that both girls desperately want answers to.
The Bees and the Car Wreck
Meanwhile, their father is struggling with his own losses. He tends to his apiary, trying to figure out why his bees are disappearing. But when he discovers a car wreck on their farm, along with human remains, old secrets begin to resurface, threatening to destroy the fragile family unit.
A Puzzle to Solve
One day, Tess' teacher, Jim, crosses paths with Evangeline by the wild Repentance River. Jim, fleeing his own troubles in Sydney, is intrigued by Evangeline's enigmatic nature. Raised in a mountain commune and scarred by a fire that wiped it out, Evangeline becomes a puzzle that Jim longs to solve.
An Unfolding Storm
As the rainforest trees are mercilessly cut down and the lakes become polluted by runoff from expanding mines, Tess helplessly watches her family's landscape undergo drastic changes. A storm is brewing, and the Müller family is right in its path. They must confront their past and the losses they have experienced to find solace in being found once again.
