Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. *Winner of the 2016 Miles Franklin Literary Award*Black Rock White City is a novel about the damages of war, the limits of choice, and the hope of love. During a hot Melbourne summer Jovan's cleaning work at a bayside hospital is disrupted by acts of graffiti and violence becoming increasingly malevolent. For Jovan the mysterious words that must be cleaned away dislodge the poetry of the past. He and his wife Suzana were forced to flee Sarajevo and the death of their children.Intensely human, yet majestic in its moral vision, Black Rock White City is an essential story of Australia's suburbs now, of displacement and immediate threat, and the unexpected responses of two refugees as they try to reclaim their dreams. It is a breathtaking roar of energy that explores the immigrant experience with ferocity, beauty and humour.'What impresses first about A.S. Patric's novel is the assuredness of the writing, his accomplished and confident language. But what is most moving is the humanity of his story, the vividness and truth of his characters' emotional worlds. Black Rock White City is a bold, mature and compassionate novel, and I couldn't put it down.' - Christos TsiolkasView Reading Group notes here *Winner of the 2016 Miles Franklin Literary Award* Black Rock White City Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. In this deeply intimate and strikingly beautiful poetry collection, twice-shortlisted Miles Franklin Award author Gregory Day celebrates the ongoing wonders of the earth and sea while calling time on the superficial divisions we have created between ideas of nature and culture.Southsightedness offers a way of being as well as seeing. It details a very direct and local world but one made universal by the poets art. This is a world of reality and the imagination, a world of damaged and regenerating ecologies, where the poet lives surrounded by family, animals, weather, sport, tourism, and the layers of history.With lyrical craft and inventive power, Southsightedness offers deep aesthetic pleasure but in an often-down-to-earth way. In part a survey of the past as well as a navigational guide for the future, it is a vivid poetic catalogue of a 21st century cultural landscape, where all things are interconnected, including sound and sense, beauty and humour, truth and joy.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. **'Thank the literary gods for Kris Kneen! For the way they make desire dangerous again, the body luminous, and shame impossible. For giving us a sea full of monsters and the terrifying grace of finding one inside ourselves.' Beejay Silcox** _'And here you are. You, who might feel the itch of an uncomfortable identity hanging heavy on your shoulders like a hair shirt. It is you I sing to. You who are tempted by the possibility of something more.'_ In the hope of salvaging their relationship, Miranda and Richard become caretakers of a remote island lighthouse off the coast of Tasmania. Richard wants to shake up the malaise that had him falling into an affair, Miranda wants to understand what has changed and to recover from a diving accident that almost took her life. Both are excited about the renewal and adventure that the mysterious lighthouse promises. But what begins as a reuniting, quickly turns for Miranda in to an untamed journey back to the ocean that swirls at the core of her being. Few write so vividly about bodily intimacy and spirit as Kneen. Rite of Spring beautifully fuses place, psychological drama, the primordial nature of the ocean and the personal search for a centre. It is a mind-blowing novel about a woman on the cusp of menopause that transcends our expectations about who and what we can be. **'A triumph the ultimate celebration of transition and of more-than-human love. Elegantly wrought, stunningly defiant and pitch perfect this is Kneen at the height of their powers.' Laura Jean McKay** **'A psychosexual page turner dripping with tension, lust, bodies in flux. Kris Kneen's Rite of Spring is Australian gothic at its best.' Siang Lu** **'Glorious and sweeping. I was riveted by this uncanny, generous tale of Miranda's search for belonging, and its scenes of wildly great sex.' Mirandi Riwoe** Rite of Spring beautifully fuses place, psychological drama, the primordial nature of the ocean and the personal search for a centre. It is a mind-blowing novel about a woman on the cusp of menopause that transcends our expectations about who and what we can be.
