Benang:

from the heart
Front Cover
10 Reviews
Fremantle Arts Centre Press, 1999 - Fiction - 500 pages

Both tentative and daring, it speaks to the present and a possible future through stories, dreams, rhythms, songs, images and documents mobilized from the incompletely acknowledged and still dynamic past.
