O knihe

These are stories rendered in miniature and moments inscribed with precise focus. Australia's best micro­wordsmiths offer journeys in words that will take you somewhere surprising. A stolen glimpse of a father dancing alone to music; Gothic landscapes on the New South Wales coast; incredible spectrums in the colours of butterflies; Aussie cricket and climate change; remembrances of an exiled home land or the awkward sexual politics at a funeral.
These stories capture delightful and unsettling moments of estrangement, when the new becomes familiar and the ordinary, sublime.
'With the unsettling perfection of the miniature, this is a collection of sparkling treasures - each one demanding to be held up examined, re-examined and then marvelled over.' GEORGIA BLAIN
'The stories in Out of Place are like a constellation of dancing fireflies: brief, beautiful and completely dazzling.' JAMES BRADLEY
Includes work by Ceridwen Dovey, Rjurik Davidson, Tania Hershman, Roberta Lowing, Angela Meyer, John Tranter and many others.
