Jenn Phizacklea is a poet and novelist with a passion for history. She lives in Perth, Western Australia, with her husband, two dogs, and a rabbit.
Stories from Wiacubbin is a series of interconnected short stories set in the early years of European settlement in Western Australia, between 1905 - 1940.
At the centre of the stories is the Young family: Frank, who appears stern and unforgiving, but what really drives him? His wife, Eleanor, who suffers from a mental illness that no one knows how to handle; and their daughter Rebekah, who has never seen anywhere but Wiacubbin, yet reads and dreams of other places, and of finding someone who sees behind her enforced silence.
These were times of drought, war and economic depression. The stories revolve around the search for happiness, the strength and weakness of the human spirit, the sorrow and joy in the face of struggle, and at the core of everything, the redemptive power of love.
