For our first book launch, we have the honour of presenting Lucy Durneen's fabulous first collection of short fiction - Wild Gestures - published by Aussie independent, Midnight Sun.
It is hard to describe Durneen's stories because they are so rich and vibrant; there is just so much going on. With brilliant characters, unexpected worlds, raw honesty, and sensory extravagance, Durneen slices straight through to the heart with her dazzling word-play. There is darkness and pain but, also, an almost whimsical optimism at the heart of these stories, leaving the reader in awe at the everyday beauty of life and love.
