2 18 y separately published work icon The House of Breathing Gail Jones , ( trans. Roberta Buffi with title La casa del respiro ) Milan : Tranchida CorsoCosmo , 1999 Z508629 1992 selected work short story (taught in 2 units)

'The invasion of East Timor, the sinking of the Titanic, Freud's encounter with an "imbecile dwarf," astronomy, pregnancy, Tiananmen Square, a remote Aboriginal community: these historical episodes and narratives inspire the fourteen superb and engaging short stories in The House of Breathing, winner of four major Australian literary prizes. Concerned with the extremes of human experience, Jones's stories give fictional form to a wide range of philosophical concerns: cultural imperialism, political and sexual repression, the impact of modern technology on culture and consciousness.'
