The Kissing Gate

Out of heartbreak comes a new life...Gussie's father and Ned's mother, both divorced, had married each other and produced Jannie. The three children, Gussie, Ned and Jannie - not quite siblings - share a fiercely close and affectionate family bond. In their bohemian Cornish home, the children or step-children of a famous and distinguished artist, they glory in their unusual upbringing and their unconventional, loving family life...Until one day a terrible tragedy takes away the foundations of their family, and they have to learn to cope on their own. Moving from Cornwall to New York and back to the West Country again, Susan Sallis' warm and powerful novel shows us love and sorrow, and family life in all its guises.
