Bring your thoughts and a snack to share if you can as we discuss Jeanine Scott’s ‘Purple Threads’
“Growing up in the shifting landscape of Gundagai with her Nan and Aunties, Sunny spends her days playing on the hills near their farmhouse and her nights dozing by the fire, listening to the big women yarn about life over endless cups of tea. It is a life of freedom, protection, and love. But as Sunny grows she must face the challenge of being seen as different, and of having a mother whose visits are as unpredictable as the rain. Based of Jeanine Leane’s own childhood, these funny, endearing, and thought-provoking stories offer a snapshot of a unique Australian upbringing.”
