A propos de cet article

Dylan and her adored French mother dream of one day sailing across the ocean to France. Paris, Dylan imagines, is a place where her black skin won't make her stand out, a place where she might feel she belongs. But when she loses her mother in a freak accident, Dylan finds herself on a very different journey: a road trip across outback Australia in the care of her mother's grieving boyfriend, Pat. As they travel through remote towns further and further from the water that Dylan longs for, she and Pat form an unlikely bond. One that will be broken when he leaves her with the family she has never known. Metal Fish, Falling Snow is a warm, funny and highly original portrait of a young girl's search for identity and her struggle to deal with grief. Through families lost and found, this own-voices story celebrates the resilience of the human heart and our need to know who we truly are. 'Breathtaking.one of the most moving books I've read in ages.' Vikki Wakefield 'Full of spark and humour, and each page is imbued with striking and unforgettable imagery.This is a novel for both young and old; a brilliant and heartfelt work of Australian fiction.' Stella Prize Judges' Report 'A whirling, raging, intense portrait of a teen who experiences the world in ways that she struggles to communicate to others.Layers of ideas about race, identity, grief and family run through this book, but the focus never wavers from Dylan's funny and profound voice. This is a really moving, original and thought-provoking novel.' Readings 'A brilliant debut.the novel stares back at the White gaze and demands that it set aside its entitlement and its self-imposed authority.Metal Fish, Falling Snow carries the pain of loss, the nuances of race and the longing for family, and interprets the world anew with immense literary skill and just a little bit of magic.' Saturday Paper. …
