'Bone Memories is a tender, wise and forensic look at what the earth holds -- the roots of the living, the secrets of the dead, the memories of all who came before. It is a celebration of the power of witness, as well as the power of nature -- and an elegy to its loss.'--Kristina Olsson 'Sally Piper's writing goes straight to the heart of things; how we grieve, love, survive, and remember. Her fiction asks fundamental questions about nature, earth, and our bodies: where does trauma and memory live and linger? How do we memorialise what we cannot bear to forget? Bone Memories is a powerful exploration of conflicts, common ground, and what it means to own our stories.' --Holly Ringland 'Bone Memories got right under my skin ... Tense and compelling, Piper has written a page-turner that is also an elegant meditation on memory and grief and the ground we tread.' --Kate Mildenhall 'At the heart of this moving and beautiful book is the tender exploration of a family and the love that holds them together, and their reckoning with unspeakable grief. Piper is such a vivid and acute observer of people and place that Bone Memories seems both perfect and, when it ends, a personal loss. I loved it.' --Lucy Treloar
