Book excerpt: Annotation How do you decide how to live? Or do others make that decision for you? In this lyrical novel, award-wining author Beryl Fletcher explores the pardoxes of modern life. As a new academic, Julia finds her feminist beliefs challenged by her students, reinforced by her friend's mistreatment and dismissed by her family. Just as her mother sought freedom from her family's rural poverty, Julia searches for her own solace, finding it in different and disparate places. (Part of the Spinifex Feminist Classic series.).
