Beautifully crafted by a prize winning author, these wonderful stories resonate with humanity - its subtleties, omissions, follies and frailties. This is a powerful Australian voice, adept at creating a lattice of the unsaid. The characters have experiences we can connect to, drawing us to see beyond the surface.Acutely observed settings and juxtapositions reveal the complexity of life. A boy builds a model solar system while his world falls apart, a reviled outcast searches for a Christmas gift, a young constable confronts ugliness in a beautiful landscape. Thieves, farmers, prison guards, real estate agents, factory workers, surfers, storm-drenched characters in a tinny - human hearts behind the mask and the uniform.J. S.
