Book Launch: Miniatures by Susan Midalia

We're thrilled to invite you to the launch of Susan Midalia's latest book, Miniatures: A collection of short short stories, published by Night Parrot Press and made possible by the generous support of the WA Dept. of Local Government, Sport and Culture (DLGSC).

Miniatures is a provocative collection of flash and micro fiction that casts an unflinching eye on modern social issues and themes: from family dynamics, climate change and the value ofreading and writing to national and gender identity. Satiric, compassionate, poignant and witty, these technically deft and inventive stories reveal the vexations, absurdities and hidden desires of parents and children, lovers, politicians, and those who delight in the power of the written word.

Join us as we celebrate one of WA's most respected and established authors as she embraces the challenge of an emergent genre:

"There is something so powerful about very short fiction, where every word counts and opens up a universe of meaning.” --Susan Midalia
