Steele Diaries JAMES, WENDY
Australia Random House Australia 2008 1740513843 / 9781740513845 Paperback
Good Condition, nice clean copy great value 8vo - from 7 ¾" tall to 9 ¾" tall. The only child of two famous but self-absorbed artists, Zelda Steele is adopted by her parents' patrons when she is just a baby. Great things are expected of this privileged young woman, but at 27 Zelda is dead, leaving two young children and a body of work that only hints at her promise. Years later, Zelda's daughter Ruth returns to her childhood home to find the diaries her mother is rumoured to have kept. What they reveal will send Ruth on a journey into the past - and transform her future in ways she can't even begin to imagine. Weaving together the narratives of three very different women, living in vastly different times, The Steele Diaries paints a rich and evocative portrait of the Sydney art scene from the thirties to the seventies, and examines the eternal conflict between maternity and creativity, motherhood and self.

Why She Loves Him JAMES, WENDY
Australia UWA Publishing 2009 1921401192 / 9781921401190 Paperback
Good Condition, nice clean copy great value cheap postage on weekends These are tales of fugitive lives: dazzling portraits of women and men on the run, from their present, their past, their future - from themselves. Here, finally, is the complete collection of short fiction from award-winning author Wendy James. Holding a discerning mirror to seemingly ordinary lives, James captures recurring themes of love, betrayal, passion and guilt to show just how vulnerable and intricate the human heart really is. Whether narrating from the living room of a contemporary marriage, from the wheel of a desperate getaway car, or while composing an elaborate diversion in 18th-century Salzburg, James has the rare ability to wryly comment on humankind with unnerving clarity and precision.
