About this listen

 “Mark writes about place with such care and consideration – there's a richness and beauty to his descriptions, such that his setting becomes a key character…” – Kind words from an editor at one of the world’s biggest publishing houses.


The life- and death-cycles of an idyllic Balinese village have been going on, almost undisturbed, for generations – but when the bodies of two foreigners are discovered life for the entire village is altered forever.

Driftwood Chandeliers is set in a traditional village in rural Bali, where Brazilian surfer Natalia de Souza has been hired to manage a small resort. Life flows to the rhythm of ceremonies that honour and appease the island’s gods and spirits, and all is peaceful – until an unexpected chain of events drives a wedge into the harmonious community of fisher-folk and paddy-people. As the character-rich plot unfolds – in an evocative, fast-paced story that is part mystery, part magical realism – it becomes clear that everyone must ultimately choose sides.

Even the ghosts and demons cannot remain neutral forever and, as the Balinese believe, even a goddess can make mistakes.
