'A glorious love story' - Sarah Winman, author of Still Life
Longlisted for the Dublin Literary Award

From a 19th-century Prussian village to the dusty plains of Australia, Devotion is a stunning story about the impossible lengths we go to for the ones we love, with a breathtaking twist. From the bestselling author of Burial Rites, Hannah Kent.


Hanne and Thea's friendship is a miracle. Before, Hanne always felt apart from the local girls, but with Thea it all came easy. Suddenly she could imagine a future for herself, a happy one, by Thea's side.

But when their tight-knit community embarks on a long and brutal journey to Australia, in search of new freedoms on old land, Hanne and Thea's bond must find a way to survive the most impossible devastation.

Will their love prove too strong for even Nature to break?

'Exquisite . . . it's taken root in my heart' - Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies


'So beautiful and so raw . . . Devotion is impossibly good' - Evie Wyld, author of The Bass Rock
