The Resurrection Cove

Fourteen stories collected for the first time and presented as the final volume of Graham Jackson's 'Tales from a Square Crib' trilogy. The earlier volumes, 'Square Crib' and 'The Decline of Western Hill' were published by the University of Queensland Press in 1981 and 1983 respectively. 'The stories catch at the fraying edges of small town life' Otago Daily Times (NZ). 'These are troubling stories... They are surreal, bizarre, and have much imaginative invention and crazy logic' Luna (Aus). 'The insidious effects of discrimination based on skin colour are depicted with imagination and vigour' Publishers Weekly (US). 'Jackson's writing is understated, subtle and delicate. He tackles political issues with intelligence and depth through a set of closely linked stories' Social Alternatives (Aus). 'Jackson is a social commentator whose balanced perceptions present a celebration of life with all its fragility and force' Access (Aus).
