An anomalous kiss. A white turtle ferrying the dreams of the dead. A working siesta in a five-star hotel. A woman’s twelve-metre hair trawling corpses from a river. Or a queue of longings in Darlinghurst. These enigmatic tales are stories of chance and hope. Alternately mythic, wistful or quirky, Merlinda Bobis’ tales resonate with an original and confident storytelling voice. Published as The Kissing in the United States.
"Merlinda Bobis writes like an angel. Her characters whisper to you long after they've told their bittersweet tales." --Arlene J. Chai, author, "Eating"Fire and Drinking Water"
