AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A former drug addict searches for her daughter, adopted as a baby by an affluent middle-class couple. An intense poetic exploration with domestic and personal themes. The central premise in Chasing the Dragon focuses on the notion that you will meet good fortune if you see the dragon's tail. (Source: Koori Mail, 182, 1998:30; Austage website)
