0 reviewsCatherine O'Flynn’s warm and witty debut novel is a tender and sharply observant story about a missing young girl.
In the 1980s, Kate Meaney is busy being a junior detective. She observes goings-on and follows ‘suspects’ at the Green Oaks shopping centre and in her street, where she is friends with the newsagent’s son, Adrian. But when this curious, independent-spirited young girl disappears, Adrian falls under suspicion and is hounded from his home by the press. Then, in 2004, Adrian’s sister Lisa and security guard Kurt become entranced by the little girl they keep glimpsing on the centre’s CCTV…
"What Was Lost is a moving novel, bespeaking not only the energy and inventiveness of its author but also the power of good old realism. A realist novel explores what's out there beyond the narrator's or the author's state of mind. A realist novel portrays the world as a place where empathy and sympathy are both possible, and both give the individual's inherent loneliness meaning. A realist novel asks the reader to connect and maintains that there are ideas and people worth connecting to." - Jane Smiley, Los Angeles Times
