Description
Book SynopsisLoose threads that are dropped on one journey are picked up on another and woven into the delicate fabric we each wrap around ourselves. To hold the threads together - to tell a yarn - suggests that we are all weavers of a kind. University of Sydney students contributed their work to this new anthology, and in their unique ways, each writer has taken up a strand of human fibre and woven it into the resulting stories, poems and essays.
