Sisters

This anthology of Australia's leading women writers - Elizabeth Jolley, Dorothy Hewett, Gillian Mears, Beth Yahp, Helen Garner and Drusilla Modjeska - explores the vexed subject of sisters in this anthology. Each of the writers were asked to contribute a piece in any form - fiction, non-fiction or a mixture - to an anthology about sisters. All of the writers have explored the unique relationship that sisters share in a different way so that, although linked by a common theme, the stories vary widely in setting, mood and approach. Drusilla Modjeska is the author of "Exiles at Home" and "Poppy", which won the NBC's Banjo Award for Non-Fiction. She is editor of "The Poems of Lesbia Harford", "Nellie Melba, Ginger Meggs & Friends" and "Inner Cities".
