I can see my house from here

“…Let us praise all the following
pieces for their voicing of minds trapped by lives both inward
and wayward, and for their steady forays, finally, into human fragility.”

Nam Le, author of The Boat

You can see it from a tower overlooking Sydney. From dust-bowl paddocks. From among soft
movements on the ocean floor. You can see it from suburbia and abroad.

I can see my house from here features matriarchs and dog owners, truck drivers and farmers’ sons.
Inpatients and lovers, journalists
and birds.

The prestigious writing program at the University of Technology, Sydney, showcases this year’s talent in its 24th anthology; a collection of short stories, poems, creative non-fiction and screenwriting.
