In this collection of short stories, Tracey-Anne Forbes explores the gulf between illusion and reality in her protagonists' lives. In a complex presentation of womanhood, she offers an unravelling of a maze of myths. These stories encompass the joys and shocks of girlhood, marriage and family life; the final tales embrace grief and ultimate redemption. 'What makes these stories rise high and hit home is the lyricism of the language and the sheer poetry of Tracey's insights...this is, I think, what in coming years will define her as a writer.' - Venero Armanno 'It is her precise details and their Australian familiarity that breathe life into Forbes' collection. She creates a picture through the use of original metaphors and similes that make you feel as if you are there, as if you are safe - and then pulls the rug from beneath your feet with her honesty.' - Writing Queensland
