A gritty, fresh Australian story with a Romeo and Juliet themed love story at its centre, from the inaugural Indigenous Writers Mentorship recipient.
‘An evocative and gutsy new voice.’ Tara June Winch
Talia is sixteen, pregnant and angry. Her family is broken. She’s looking after her unwell mother. Her dad’s gone. At school she is shunned. And Johnny-the one person she thought she could count on-just walked away.
Johnny is Barkindji, smart and confused. He’s struggling with the weight of his parents’ expectations- he wants to please them, but is the future they’ve planned for him the one he really wants? He makes a decision he knows he’ll regret- leaving Talia behind.
But some love-no matter how impossible-never lets go.
Forever & Ever is a gritty, heart-wrenching love story set in a Murray-Darling river town simmering with deep-seated prejudice and long-buried secrets.
