Product Description This first collection introduces the work of an exciting new writer on the New Zealand literary scene. Some of Frankie McMillan's stories have been published before in various journals and broadcast on National Radio. That they grabbed the attention of a broad range of readers and listeners is not surprising, for she has a remarkable ability to introduce a character in such a way that you immediately stand in his or her shoes and what characters they are! Meet the Marshmallow Queen, the heroine of the collection's major story, whose wry resilience in the face of outrageous fortune arouses a rich mixture of compassion and laughter; Kenny, the support worker whose 'boundaries' became blurred; and many others often battlers, loners or society's casualties whose quiet stories will linger in the memory long after you've put down the book. Review Her writing is sharp, true, irreverent and compassionate. In this collection the author presents a world slightly off center. Owen MarshallShe offers a language of poignancy and humor, with flushes of something darker ... piercingly touching and engagingly comic. Harry Ricketts
