Résumé
Half-Asian
teenager Grace (but she'd prefer it if you called her "Gray" instead) is dead
set on becoming a marine biologist rather than being anything like her mother,
Belinda. She'd leave that role to her sister Jess instead, who's a
supermon-in-the-making. Belinda herself is somewhat obsessed
as well, by crop circle books and imagery, and abruptly runs out on her family,
flying across the Atlantic in order to study the real things in the English
countryside.
Grace and her sister are left alone to take care of the house, their rapidly-deteriorating stepfather and their peculiar brother, Squid. Belinda's Rings links together the coming of age of a young biracial woman with the mid-life crisis of her mother. With warmth, kindness and a boisterous sense of humour, Corinna Chong introduces us to two lovable and thoroughly original female protagonists: persnickety, precocious Grace, and her impractical, impulsive mother Belinda-very different women who nevertheless persistently circle back into each other's hearts.
