The stories included in this anthology share two common themes - all were written during what was thought to be one of the low periods in Australian writing and all prove that women's writing during this low period was as powerful as it had ever been.
These are positive, restless works by women writers who had yet to sample the feminist movement of the 1970s but whose subject matter already encompassed it. They include works by Eleanor Dark, Thea Astley, Katherine Susannah Pritchard, Christina Stead, Elizabeth Harrower, Kylie Tennant, Charmian Clift, Ruth Park, and many more.
