Work Description

A feminist fantasy novel set in the bush of Southwest Western Australia where a group of women neighbours, manipulated by a foul-mouth abused twelve-year-old, create a system of rites and rituals for women which grows so quickly the world takes notice, despite the founding members, most of whom don't really know what it is all about.

Set in the glorious southwest bush region of Western Australia these women neighbours take the world by storm. Meet Ana, atheistic paediatrician turned protea grower, Elsie, a fallen RC prostitute turned millionaire, Teresa, a practising RC, gossipy dairy farmer who would rather be a ballet dancer, Jane, a convicted murderer and meditative painter who wants to be a Buddhist nun, Sophia, a zoologist researching the mating habits of ring-tailed possums and an foul-mouthed, recalcitrant, abused twelve-year old genius who knits.

Mix them up, add Arua, the Goddess of Women in a bright-white light on a rainbow, and what does the world get? A social phenomenon? A new religion? A political movement? A safe haven? A war? Read this book and decide for yourself. This story is sad, funny, and challenging.
