PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Penni Russon was born in Hobart, and spent her childhood roaming around on a small mountain. Eventually she had to grow up, and she moved from Tasmania to Melbourne to study classics, archaeology, women's studies and contemporary literature. She writes, edits and teaches creative writing, and lives in outer Melbourne with her husband and three children.
Like the sound of the little loved music box that is so pivotal to the story, Only Ever Always is both deeply touching and strangely eerie, leaving the reader with a mixture of warmth and apprehension, yearning and wonder--about death, life, language, art, dreams and childhood. Fascinating and absolutely memorable. --Ursula Dubosarsky, author, The Word Snoop
