Acerca de este título
Estranged from her family, Natasha is making a life for herself in Darwin when her sister calls with bad news. Their mother is ill and has only a few months to live. Confused and conflicted, Natasha returns to the home she fled many years before. But her father, an evangelical Christian, has not changed – he is still the domineering yet magnetic man she ran from, and her sisters and mother are still in his thrall.
One night, her father makes an astonishing announcement – he has received a message from God that his wife is to be healed, and they must hold a party to celebrate. As Natasha and her sisters prepare for the big event – and the miracle – she struggles to reconcile her family’s faith with her sense that they are pretending. Is she a traitor or the only one who can see the truth? And what use is truth anyway, in the face of death?

'The portrait of the family is wonderfully realised, especially the mother, whom Lee has imbued with warmth and grace, and her own inner mystery.' (Amanda Lohrey, author of The Labyrinth)
'The Healing Party is part reality television and part an anthropological study of a strange foreign culture…[a] deceptively simple, disciplined work.' (The Saturday Paper)
