About this listen

This collected short fiction celebrates one of Australia’s most loved authors.

These stories - that delve into the complexities of love and longing, of the pain, darkness and joy of life - are all told with Helen Garner's characteristic sharpness of observation, honesty and humour. Each one a perfect piece, together they showcase Garner’s mastery of the form.
