This summer's dolphin

Tells the story of a maverick dolphin which seemingly seeks to renew that ancient friendship between human and dolphin which has enthralled and delighted storytellers since the days of Romans and Greeks. It is alsothe tale of the offshore island of Motutangi, a faded beach resort direly in need of a miracle. That summer the miracle came, Motutangi's most colourful guest in years, leaping and diving in showers of spray behind Frank Yakich's fishing boat. The islanders adopt Motu as their own: first as a magical plaything; later, with increasing fervour, as something more. No one is left untouched by the dolphin's spell - lives change, begin anew or end in the dolphin's luminous summer.
