My review of Rhett Davis' new novel 'Aborescence' is now online. It's about people turning into trees! Highly recommended (the book, not becoming a tree. Although actually..) www.theage.com.au/culture/book...

"Our nature lore is set in stone with many stories still inscribed on rocks and in the
ground all across Country. They intertwine with the natural systems of Mother Earth. The water flow,
sun, moon and stars - all these things assist in the connectiveness of everything."

I'm reflecting tonight on the apparent collapse of government intent to create new Australian nature protection laws, promised reforms so urgently needed to give our irreplaceable animals, plants and places a fighting chance of surviving and thriving beyond our brief human lives.
