Flames by Robbie Arnott

5.0

“In the shudder of his skin, in the run of his blood, he would feel the wonder again.”

What a book! Bravo Robbie Arnott.

Flames tells the story of several complex characters, including the flames themselves. It speaks of the power to learn, grow, and be reborn that is within all of us.

This one is equal parts odd and human and elemental. Each chapter is a short story in its own right, with intrigue right to the end.

If you need a decent read, pick this up - bonus points if you are travelling to Tasmania, as a key character and theme of Flames is the Tasmanian landscape.
