Paperback. Condizione: Good. In these thirteen short stories, Georgia Blain examines human nature in all its richness: out motivations, out desires and our shortcomings. The men in these tales frequently linger at the edges - their longings and failures exerting a subterranean pull on the women in their lives. In 'The Secret Lives of Men', a woman revisits her hometown and learns a long-held secret about her first boyfriend. In 'The Bad dog Park', a man's devotion to his dog ultimately forces him to confront his true hopes and fears. And in 'The Other Side of the River', we watch as a woman makes a snap decision about her life's future direction, with devastating consequences for her family. Written in Blain's trademark unadorned yet powerful prose, these stories resonate long after they are finished. 'A haunting, unsentimental exploration of the vexations and joys of modern life, family, love and desire.' Kirsten Tranter The Secret Live of Men is an exceptional collection by one of Australia's leading writers.…

WINNER OF THE 2017 VICTORIAN PREMIER'S LITERARY AWARD FOR FICTIONWINNER OF THE 2016 UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND FICTION BOOK AWARDSHORTLISTED FOR THE 2017 STELLA PRIZEONE OF BOOKPEOPLE'S '100 BEST AUSTRALIAN BOOKS OF THE 21ST CENTURY''Whenever I need reminding of the preciousness of ordinary life I return to this stunning novel of forgiveness and family, which gives clear, beautiful voice to the fierce luck of being alive.'Charlotte WoodEster is a family therapist with an appointment book that catalogues the anxieties of the middle class: loneliness, relationships, death. She spends her days helping others find happiness, but her own family relationships are tense and frayed. Estranged from both her sister, April, and her ex-husband, Lawrence, Ester wants to fall in love again. Meanwhile, April is struggling through her own directionless life; Lawrence's reckless past decisions are catching up with him; and Ester and April's mother, Hilary, is about to make a choice that will profoundly affect them all.Taking place largely over one rainy day in Sydney, rendered with evocative and powerful prose, the multi-award-winning Between a Wolf and a Dog is a celebration of the best in all of us - our capacity to live in the face of ordinary sorrows, and to draw strength from the transformative power of art.'Blain just gets better and better. The clarity, warmth, and precision of Between a Wolf and a Dog brings to mind the formal beauty of an exquisitely cut gemstone.
