All the Unloved is a novella-length journey to nineties Bondi. We meet residents from a block of flats — initially linked only through their shared address — but quickly entangled through their secrets and desires. Jade, skateboard slung under arm, teeters on the edge of womanhood in nineties Bondi. Through her eyes we view the intertwined lives of her unit block neighbours — a queer couple attempts a fresh start near the beach, a lonely violinist battles isolation, and a pair of elderly sisters watch all from their window, regretting missed opportunities. When brilliant Rebecca, a young author, arrives on the scene, wounds and desires are exposed, and secrets unravel. 'Is it a painting? Is it a poem? No, it’s a novella as an act of prestidigitation. And it will become a classic. In a fresh, free, engaging style, Susan McCreery explores the histories — tragic, comic, mundane — of lives in a Bondi apartment block. The camera angles of the elegant, sensual prose shift and glide as the full scale of the drama is steadily illuminated.' — Carmel Bird 'Susan McCreery is the master of the small, deft stroke: her characters come alive, break your heart, make you want to live. McCreery can do in one page what might take other writers a whole novel.' — Hayley Scrivenor'Tender. Crushingly real. This exquisite rendering of human longing will unravel your heart and weave it whole again.' — Carol Major
