'The Trip is the story of Odysseus or Oddy who claims he's as old as Arfstraya itself. He's brain-damaged, demented, deluded or just senile. He is an old beer-drinker who has drunk too much grog in his time; he is perpetually down the local pub; indeed, he just about lives there... Or he's been embittered by all the indignities he's suffered as a Greek migrant to Arfstraya or he's telling the truth and he really is one of the Olympian gods, an immortal, a minor deity, a demi- or semi-god who can even remember the dinosaurs...
'The Trip traverses Australian history, and features some prominent Australian historical personalities on the way.' (Publisher's blurb)

sequence
poetry
'Out of Bounds is a sequence of poems in three parts, i.e., 'The Gaze of Silence', 'Out of Bounds' and 'The Silence of the Gaze'. It is a double story of dislocation that explores autobiographical fragments drawing on the protagonist's experience of migration and motherhood. It draws together the two strands to reveal a subject at pains to re-define herself through language in a space circumscribed by sexuality, culture, and post-colonial politics.' (Publisher's blurb)

satire
'The History of My Body is a meditation on childhood, adolescence and young adulthood by an emerging Australian female writer. This is a history of the merciless, well-worn path of encounters and accomplices: of family and friends, of education and confusion, of solids, liquids and gas. History traditionally pertains to fact, but the story of the body of Larissa Bird descries no such truth. ' (Publication summary)
