A novel about connections in a changing world of friends, lovers, family, illness, and death, this unique narrative tells the story of Marie King - a 59-year-old divorcée from Sydney’s affluent north shore. Having devoted her rather conventional life to looking after her husband and three children, Marie is experiencing an identity crisis. Forced to sell the family home now that her children have moved out, Marie expresses herself by getting a tattoo and, consequently, forges a friendship with tattoo artist Rhys. As Rhys introduces Marie to an alternative side of Sydney, friction erupts between Marie’s social spheres - the affluent middle class and the tattoo subculture. A multi-layered examination of how we live now, this account positions one family as a microcosm for the modifications operating in society at large.©2010 Fiona McGregor (P)2011 Bolinda Publishing Frauenliteratur

Kritikerstimmen

“This is a superb book by – undeniably now – one of our finest writers.” (Christos Tsiolkas, award-winning author of The Slap)
“An exceptional novel: complex, confronting, richly imagined and beautifully wrought.” (Debra Adelaide, The Age)
“Every now and again a novel just takes your breath away with its audacity and its perceptive take on life and the world. Indelible Ink is such a book.” (Readings)
Indelible Ink, McGregor's fifth novel, marks a notable departure in style for the critically acclaimed 44-year-old author, who in 1997 was voted one of The Sydney Morning Herald's Best Young Australian Novelists. This book is bound to reach a wider audience than her previous three works of fiction - Au Pair (shortlisted for the The Australian/Vogel Award), Suck My Toes (which won the Steele Rudd award), and Chemical Palace (shortlisted for the NSW Premier's Award for fiction) - and her travel memoir based on her time as a performance artist in Eastern Europe, Strange Museums. Her latest and largest work of fiction, a three-child family saga that has being compared to Jonathan Franzen's The Corrections, examines how change in one family can be a microcosm for change in society. (The Sydney Morning Herald)
