A rich and many-layered portrait of Rita Finnerty, a young Australian artist, living and working in France. Through an exploration of her various relationships, past and present, the novel traces the symbiotic evolution of her personal and artistic lives.
Concerned with personal location and expression, Lines of Flight is a vivid, poetic account of the ambiguity of the female situation. Conscious of the difficulty of language as women are defined by default against the male position, it is a novel about moving away from self-obsession and concern with identity. (synopsis page)
