Jane Cockram and Rhett Davis

Thursday, 24 March 2022 - 11:30am to 11:59am

Twenty years after a younger, impulsive sister returns from a summer overseas, she dies. She has left her reliable older sister instructions of where to scatter her ashes with letters to read of explanation.  There are hidden secrets and undisclosed truths that connect very different families in Jane Cockram’s ‘The Way From Here’. 

The dislocation the characters feel in Rhett Davis’ novel, ‘Hovering’, can be extrapolated into the dispossession one would feel on losing everything familiar to them. The very landscape becomes disorienting and this is even expressed in Rhett’s strategic use of form and style.
