The Hammerhead Light
By Colin Thiele
Published by Rigby Opal Books: Melbourne etc 1976 1st Edition

" The Hammerhead Light by Colin Thiele is a sea story that captures the isolation, resilience, and human drama surrounding life at a remote lighthouse off the Australian coast. Thiele, known for weaving vivid Australian landscapes into his fiction, sets this tale against the backdrop of the rugged ocean and the ever-present threat of storms and shipwrecks. The novel explores the challenges faced by the lighthouse keepers and their families, highlighting both the dangers of the sea and the quiet heroism required to maintain the light that guides sailors to safety.

At its core, the book is about endurance, duty, and the bonds formed in the face of hardship. Through rich descriptive prose and compelling characters, Thiele conveys the tension between man and nature, while also celebrating the sense of community and responsibility that lighthouse service demanded. The Hammerhead Light stands as both a gripping narrative and a tribute to a vanishing way of life along Australia's coasts, where isolation tested character and the guiding beam of the lighthouse symbolized hope and survival."
