It is also totally unexpected, moving into the terrain of fantasy/science fiction. A storytelling myth for a new Dark Age.'Archie Weller's stories are more than the events they describe they also create a dreaming and it is the interplay between these opposites, the bleak reality of the character's everyday lives and the magic of the place they inhabit, that give his stories their unique creative tension.' - MARTIN FLANAGAN'GOING HOME is one of the most singular and impressive collections of contemporary stories to appear in Australia. I eagerly await Archie Weller's next effort.' - ADAM SHOEMAKER.

Archie Weller was born in 1957 and was brought up on a farm in the southwest of Western Australia.

The book was shortlisted by the Vogel Award judges and won the fiction award in the literature section of the prestigious Western Australia Week Literary Awards. In 1991 The Day of The Dog was made into the film Blackfellas, which won two AFI awards.
