It was a sunny, light-aired day, and we walked quickly down the street strewn with gumnuts. I remember taking several deep breaths, as if to reassure myself that whatever had happened to my strong, smiling uncle, I was still alive and was going to keep on living, and that life and breath were very good things. Discoveries from the past, hopes for the future and the decisions we make on a knife edge that clarify our own sense of self. These elements inform Ursula Dubosarsky's multi-award-winning novels and are in sharp, bright evidence in these eleven beautifully crafted short stories, by turns poignant, funny, reflective and joyful nearly always mercurial collected together for the first time. The most graceful, most original writer for young people in Australia-probably the world (Sonya Hartnett).
