Description
Set in early 19th-century Prussia, Devotion follows Hanne, a young woman with an almost sacred connection to the natural world, and her quiet but fierce love for Thea. When their Old Lutheran community is forced to flee religious persecution, the journey to South Australia brings profound change, loss, and a redefinition of what it means to love and to believe. Through richly poetic language, Hannah Kent paints a moving portrait of spiritual and emotional devotion.

Why You’ll Love It
This is a novel that stays with you—tender, atmospheric, and beautifully written. Perfect for readers drawn to stories of forbidden love, migration, and quiet resistance. If you loved Burial Rites, you'll be captivated by Kent’s exploration of faith, nature, and soul-deep connection.
