AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Dahlia packs Gino into a maxi taxi and takes him to the river at Orleigh Park. Their story unfolds like Gino emerging from his contortionist's box, little at a time, revealing more than was originally apparent until Kahlia's story is laid out on the grass of the West End park. This is a richly textured tale of betrayed love with a whispered hint of otherworldliness, a delightful taste of the unexpected within a much loved Brisbane dish.' (One Book Many Brisbanes : Fifth Anthology of Brisbane Stories p. 212)
