'Garner is a natural storyteller.'
JAMES WOOD, NEW YORKER
'Everywhere I Look is like having a backstage
pass into the mind, notebooks and creative
process of one of Australia's very best writers.'
GUARDIAN
'Classic Garner: lean and dry, a tough gaze with
a tender edge.' CANBERRA WEEKLY
EVERYWHERE I LOOK is a collection of essays,
diary entries and true stories spanning more
than fifteen years of the work of one of
Australia's greatest writers.
Helen Garner takes us from backstage at the
ballet to the trial of a woman for infanticide,
from the significance of moving house to the
pleasure of re-reading Pride and Prejudice.
The collection includes her famous and
controversial essay on the insults of age, her
deeply moving tribute to her mother, and the
story of her joy in discovering the ukulele.
Everywhere I Look is a multifaceted,
profound portrait of life. It glows with insight
and wisdom.
