'A teacher, a traveller, an observer and a thinker, Sue Cook’s lens is sharply focused, her words well measured. Join ‘the unravelling ribbon of road’ that winds through suburbia and the outback, through ordinary lives and magnificent moments in nature. Cook’s vivid poetic landscapes of places like the Flinders Ranges and Murray River are richly detailed; and her poem about Balfours’ frog cakes will have every South Australian licking their lips. - Jude Aquilina

'Sue Cook’s wry voice captures the moment with simplicity and reimages the ordinary with freshness, wit and profound sympathy. The familiar is made fresh as her characters shuffle through a landscape seeking sanctuary. This collection deserves ‘a tsunami of applause’. - Rory Harris ' (Publication summary)
