AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'All the Unloved is a novella-length journey to nineties Bondi. We meet residents from a block of flats — initially linked only through their shared address — but quickly entangled through their secrets and desires.

'Jade, skateboard slung under arm, teeters on the edge of womanhood in nineties Bondi. Through her eyes we view the intertwined lives of her unit block neighbours — a queer couple attempts a fresh start near the beach, a lonely violinist battles isolation, and a pair of elderly sisters watch all from their window, regretting missed opportunities. When brilliant Rebecca, a young author, arrives on the scene, wounds and desires are exposed, and secrets unravel.' (Publication summary)
