LE BAS, James
Imagine that you wake overseas one night and think you are in hell. In this darkness you fight oriental demons and dodge laser beams. You are strapped to the bed of a baffling building, tended by people you don’t recognise. Then imagine you are home again, and that you gradually get better on no medication. You take a year off to travel. What would you then think and feel?
PAISIO, Franco
Bone and Marrow-Deep is a collection of mainly recent poems, taut, lyrical, and short. Paisio shows once again in these brief verses, that even if he deems existence superfluous, and unjustifiable, he is enamoured with the magnificent, wondrous, unique, and unrepeatable adventure that life is.
RANKIN, Matt
Set amongst the spectacular
Australian Bush, Sapphire Millie and
the Quest for the Unknown Destiny
is a heartwarming tale of love, loss,
sacrifi ce and friendship between a
group of young animal friends.
DITTMANN, Andrew
From geologists to engineers, operators to environmental scientists, “Mummy is a Miner” breaks down gender stereotypes and promotes inclusion within the workforce.
CROSS, Roger
Neglected and forgotten, Annie Richards was to triumph in most surprising ways. This account reveals her rightful place in the pantheon of Victorian women who broke the expected role of subservience. Annie’s life, 1845-1930, brings into sharp focus the plight of contemporary women who were bold and fearless, but unfulfilled intellectually.
CROSS, Mary Talbot
Re-published as a single volume, The Foundling and Fortune’s Fool paint an authentic picture of South Australia and Victoria in the formative years of European settlement, and describe a young woman’s compelling journey of self-discovery from the social injustices of the Burra Burra to the challenges of Ballaarat and beyond.
