Frank has just been released from a prison in Sydney; he is a young man with empty hands and no identity. He catches a southbound train out of town and then hitchhikes west, but he’s not even sure the place he is going to is home anymore—he hasn’t been there in 15 years. For days, Frank rides the highway through an unforgiving landscape, surviving on what he finds and the kindness of strangers. As he edges closer to a home he struggles to remember, his boyhood looms. Out of the past, something is coming that will tear through his fragile hold on reality. Chilling, haunting, and suspenseful, this is a journey through one man’s splintered world.

Displaying a confident diversity of narrative voices and brevity in style, this collection of short stories reflects the author’s experiences in Central Australia, China, Mexico, and Russia. In “The Wind and Other Children,” a girl searches for her lost grandmother while her parents quarrel at home; a man contemplates inertia after toxic contamination changes life in a remote Australian town in “Extra Time;” and “The Air You Need” finds a woman imagining a mother’s love for her autistic son. An exploration of the human being, this compilation weaves themes of longing, alienation, delusion, resilience, and love. Sometimes dreamy and hypnotic, sometimes comic and wry, these stories leave their mark.
