Set 18 months after devastating fires swept through an Australian community, ending lives and destroying livelihoods, this work of fiction brings home the reality of the massive bushfires currently raging across Australia. Shiny new buildings don't make a community and the townspeople struggle to mend the fractured heart of the town. Told from the point of view of five people — four women and one man - who survived the bushfire, their individual experiences are many and varied. The rest of the world has moved on, but the people of the town are still struggling to rise above the ashes and forge a new life. The writer's personal experience and in-depth research, such as interviewing bushfire survivors, lends an air of authenticity to her story that otherwise may have been missing. Well done! ( )
