Lovers' Knots
Marion Halligan's most ambitious novel to date, 'Lovers' Knots', won the Age Book of the Year Award 1992. Set in the coastal town of Newcastle, where Halligan grew up and went to university, the novel begins as if it were a family saga covering the century 1911-2011, but its narrative denies the conventional chronology evoked and shatters as if into the fragments caught by photographs.
