Myth, memory, and Australia’s shadows

Lungfish brings docufiction together with myth, memory, and true crime in a narrative spanning Australia, from Terra Nullius to Pine Gap. Its stated concerns connect intimate themes of love and survival with larger questions about history, storytelling, and who has the right to shape or claim a story. The description also frames the novel around lament and reclamation, and around history’s effects on the present. This combination places personal experience alongside contested histories and national settings, giving the book a broad scope without losing sight of questions of ownership and survival.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in docufiction that combines myth, memory, and true crime.
  • Readers drawn to fiction engaging with Australian history, including Terra Nullius and Pine Gap.
  • Readers looking for novels that connect personal themes of love and survival with questions of storytelling and reclamation.

Book overview

LUNGFISH is a multi-layered work of docufiction, weaving myth, memory & true crime into a sprawling narrative of Australia & its shadows. From Terra Nullius to Pine Gap & beyond, LUNGFISH questions how stories are told & who owns them. At once intimate & epic, it is a novel about love & survival, lament & reclamation, & the ways in which the forces of history brutalise the present.
