<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Piripai is natural history as prose poetry. It is a story of place, time and a subtle coming of age on the sand dunes between the river and the sea. The book is structured around twenty-six birds that inhabited Piripai, and ordered according to the time of year, beginning in spring and ending in winter. It is suffused with observation and memory, conveyed in a stripped-back style that both evokes and abstracts. Through the eyes of the book's three characters - the girl, the woman, and the man - we learn about their family, their culture, their birds and the rough, beautiful land they call home.</p>
