Synopsis
Years ago, during World War II, Murray Murdoch was stationed on Elba, an island he came to love. After the war, he and his wife and their sons stay there for an extended period, trying--and failing--to make a living mining the blue tourmaline that is supposed to be prevalent there. Many years after that, one of the sons returns to the island, determined to understand the events that transpired there--and to look for tourmaline. A New York Times Notable Book for 2002.

Publisher's Note
The Pulitzer Prize-nominated writer serves up a complicated, compelling tale of a family that heads for an island off the coast of Italy hoping to make a fortune in jewels but instead is embroiled in a mystery surrounding the disappearance of a local girl.

Industry Reviews
"The talented Scott makes a big story out of a small one....A book, this time, that in manner and method is in excess of the tale it's telling--a size-four story in a size-twelve suit."
Kirkus Reviews (07/15/2002)

"...TOURMALINE once again shows Joanna Scott to be a writer who takes different directions from book to book, a quest, like the one for tourmaline, that involves looking for something when you don't know what you're looking for, and separates the genuine artist from the fake."
New York Times Book Review - Jeffrey Eugenides (10/27/2002)

"Scott's narrative slides deftly, slyly, from one point of view to another; her characters' thoughts slip and segue from the specific to the general to the philosophical until at last they collapse into nonsense....TOURMALINE is a story of seductions: erotic, geographic, intellectual, moral."
Bookforum - Kathryn Harrison
