Table of ContentsReviews'Deft, ambitious, tender and humane, Night Fishing is the most breathtakingly original memoir you will ever read. In this natural history of the author herself, we travel gently through childhood and family, grief, love and solitude - and her spellbinding twin obsessions with art and the natural world. It is the work of a questing, roving intellect and a rare humility, and Hastrich's sheer joy in language infuses the whole with a deliciously sly, intelligent humour. I'd liken her to an antipodean Annie Dillard with a fishing rod in one hand and the whole of western art history in the other - except there simply is no other writer like Hastrich. This book will tell you things you never knew about your world and yourself, and you will never forget it. Night Fishing is a masterpiece, and Vicki Hastrich is a world-class writer.' - Charlotte Wood, author of The Natural Way of Things Author InformationVicki Hastrich is the Sydney-based writer of two acclaimed novels: Swimming with the Jellyfish and The Great Arch.
