Summary
For three very different people brought together by their love of birds, life on the Queensland coast in 1914 is the timeless and idylic world of sandpipers, ibises and kingfishers. In another hemisphere civilization rushes headlong into a brutal conflict. Live there is lived from moment to moment. Inevitably, the two young men, sanctuary owner and employee, are drawn into the mud and horror of the trenches of Armentieres. Alone on the beach, their friend Imogen, the middle-aged wildlife photographer, must acknowledge for all three of them that the past cannot be held
