A new anthology of works by thirty two Central Australian writers.
Fishtails in the dust: writing from Central Australia, edited by Janet Hutchinson, includes short stories, articles and poems by established and upcoming local writers, many of whom had work published in the previous anthology The milk in the sky. Both these books are from Ptilotus Press; the local community publishing enterprise.
‘This important book is very much the potent messenger for our times from the writers who are searching for the words to the stories from their hearts, and I have found there is much to think about from reading these marvelous stories and poems’
Alexis Wright, author of Carpentaria, winner of the Miles Franklin Literary Award in 2007.
