Who would you choose: your lover or your sister? This is the dilemma Jen confronts in this intriguing verse novel, which lyrically and unpredictably interweaves storytelling and poetry. 'Saving Ginia tests and extends the boundaries of the novel in verse in ways that are original, ambiguous, elliptical. The surface shimmers and tantalises with secrets fleetingly glimpsed, possibilities obliquely revealed.' - Jena Woodhouse Praise for Crushed Sugar: 'What makes these stories rise high and hit home is the lyricism of the language, and the sheer poetry of her insights.' - Venero Armanno Tracey-Anne Forbes has had numerous stories and poems published in Australian literary magazines and anthologies, including Award Winning Australian Writing 2012 and One Book Many Brisbanes 6. She has written four novels, and a collection of her stories, Crushed Sugar, was published by Ginninderra Press in 2007. Saving Ginia is her first verse novel.

Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....

  • Crushed Sugar
    Tracey-Anne Forbes
    We disappear into the poinciana shadows, into the dream that alcohol and music and love create. I go in a dream, in a myth. This is how it should be, I think. This is the pagan story, the truth the fairytales promised us, the ending imagined from the earliest of murmured memories... But myths are not founded on reality, and fairytales do not deliver their promise... In this co...
