Résumé
Helen Garner moves into a letterbox. Dead bats rain from the sky. A woman offers Lou Reed her last cigarette at a suburban bus stop. In fifty piercing stories, Salt City Runaway introduces a cast of unforgettable characters who disrupt and delight. From Western Australia's port city of Fremantle, to its red-dusted Goldfields and wave-washed South West, women and girls fight for recognition and solace.
Slippery, complicated, tender and broken, they carry their humanity in vivid, strange worlds. Salt City Runaway is a luminous debut that reveals beauty and wonder in the smallest of stories. It is a masterclass in flash fiction. Gillian O'Shaughnessy is Australia's most celebrated flash fiction writer and a highly respected journalist and broadcaster. Her work has appeared in the Best Small Fictions anthologies (2023-2025) and has won international prizes.
A former ABC journalist and broadcaster, she has spent three decades interviewing some of the world's most prominent authors and thinkers. Gillian is a sub-editor at SmokeLong Quarterly, teaches masterclasses in flash fiction, and is serving as a 2026 Stella Prize judge. Drawing from a lifetime of storytelling-from radio to stage to page-Salt City Runaway is Gillian's first book. A chorus of tiny stabs whose sly work is done before the wounds even register. The cumulative impact is startling.-Tim WintonAn exhilarating read.
A collection of very short stories that are deep and true, Salt City Runaway has a rhythm that will keep you reading long after you intend to stop and imagery that will take your breath away. This is a collection with breadth and balance. I have felt punched in the gut, lifted aloft and dazzled by the uncanny. While each story stands alone, the voice is consistently strong and there is a sense of time and place that left me in no doubt these stories belong together.
In this collection, Gillian O'Shaughnessy beautifully illustrates the adage that less is indeed more.-Pip Williams, The Dictionary of Lost Words and The Bookbinder of Jericho
