About the Book

This bumper edition, packed with short stories and poetry introduces a new section of creative non-fiction.

The opening interview with esteemed author and broadcaster Liz Byrski is followed with a passionate piece from Glyn Parry on the lost details of September 11, then Mark Naglazas of The West Australian, opens the debate on truth and fiction filtering through this beautiful volume.

Liana Christensen’s moving memoir ‘The Land of Lost Children’ describes her personal encounter with the Stolen Generation. Megan Sheard’s essay whimsically reflects the inextricable connection between art and identity, and Rachel Robertson, winner of the 2008 Calibre Essay Award, tenderly explores parenting an autistic child.

The short stories range from dark intimate moments to laugh out loud joy. The poetry, wonderfully imagistic, is completely accessible to the lay reader, and the book reviews will engage you on the best WA writing currently available.
