Blurb
Ten brilliant stories to unsettle and intrigue from the astonishing Margo Lanagan, internationally acclaimed author of Black Juice. 'White Time is book of absolutely outstanding short stories . . . a collection of extraordinary richness and power that will reward adult as well as teenage readers.' - Adelaide Advertiser 'Ten more compelling stories from the author of the much-lauded Black Juice. Taut, vivid, original: another winner.' - The Horn Book, USA 'I haven't read such challenging short stories as these for a long time. I'm in awe of the author's imagination.' - Well Read, NZ 'This most diverse, nourishing set of stories had me riveted. They represent fantasy at its best, the unreal blended with the real, the unknown beating down the safe door of the known.' - Magpies 'Dazzling.' - John Marsden

Same author's spare, emotionally raw teen voice, but a single sustained contemporary love story instead of speculative shorts, and noticeably sexier.
The Best Thing
Lanagan's unflinching prose about teenagers again, though grounded in realism with pregnancy and romance rather than eerie invented worlds.
