WIN 1 of 6 copies of Award-winning author John Kinsella’s new fiction ‘Pushing Back’. Pushing Back Pushing Back Credit: Pushing Back/Supplied Pushing Back (Transit Lounge, $29.99) is WA author John Kinsella’s most haunting and timely fiction to date. It is populated with eccentric, compelling characters, drifters, unlikely friendships, the silences of dissolving relationships, haunted dwellings and lonely highways, the ghosts of cleared bushland and the threats of right-wing nationalists and senseless destruction. A couple make love in an abandoned asbestos house, a desperate carpet cleaner beholden to the gig economy begs a financially distressed client not to cancel his booking, an addict cannot bear to see his partner without the watch he once gave her, a mother casts her shearer son’s ashes on the property on which he worked, fascists pile into a little red car with the intent of terrorising tourists on the Nullarbor, a man more at home with machinery than people rescues a drowning kitten. Enter your code word from The West Australian PLAY Magazine 06 March or The Sunday Times Guide 07 March for your chance to WIN. Entries open March 06 and close midday 12 March 2021. |
