Resumen del Editor

WINNER OF THE MILES FRANKLIN AWARD

Welcome to Cinnamon Gardens, a home for those who are lost and the stories they treasure.

Cinnamon Gardens Nursing Home is nestled in the quiet suburb of Westgrove, Sydney—populated with residents with colourful histories, each with their own secrets, triumphs and failings. This is their safe place, an oasis of familiar delights—a beautiful garden, a busy kitchen and a bountiful recreation schedule.

But this ordinary neighbourhood is not without its prejudices. The serenity of Cinnamon Gardens is threatened by malignant forces more interested in what makes this refuge different rather than embracing the calm companionship that makes this place home to so many. As those who challenge the residents’ existence make their stand against the nursing home with devastating consequences, our characters are forced to reckon with a country divided.

Chai Time at Cinnamon Gardens is about family and memory, community and race, but is ultimately a love letter to storytelling and how our stories shape who we are.

‘An engrossing, urgent, warm, wise and utterly, utterly beautiful novel.’ Emily Maguire, bestselling author of An Isolated Incident and Love Objects

‘Chai Time at Cinnamon Gardens filled this reviewer’s heart with both hope and rage at witnessing history repeat itself, while somehow preserving optimism about how communities can be rebuilt.’ Books + Publishing

Engaging and thought provoking

The book provides a rich portrait of conflict in Sri Lanka and present day Australia.

Poignant and Powerful

Poignant and powerful - just don’t understand why they didn’t get a native Tamil speaker to narrate.

Amazing…

This is a superb read. It is sad, interesting, beautiful, funny, and enlightening.

I absolutely loved my read of it, and highly recommend it.

Very well written. Bridging of all history across the world. And confronting and unapologetic of all wars and the means adopted by the aggressors / invaders… it offers understanding and perspective for all who have felt pain of loss and love in all its forms. Amazing.
