DESCRIPTION
From the winner of the Baillie Gifford Prize 'He straightened his spine, raised his head, and extended his gun arm towards me in a slow, vertical arc. I saw then what he was, and stood still in front of him, for he was here on business. He was a small, serious, stone-eyed angel of mercy.'
Helen Garner's last work of fiction before she turned her hand to narrative non-fiction, Cosmo, Cosmolino consists of three artfully assembled linked works: two short stories and a novella
Janet is a skeptic, a journalist; Maxine revels in New Age fantasies; and Ray, a drifter, is a born-again Christian.
The common ground is the house they share.
But their fragile domestic balance is about to explode amid the smashing of ukeleles, the unexpected ascension of an angel, and a sudden shower of jonquils.
