Unacceptable Behaviour

A collection of unforgettable short stories from one of the most talented creators of contemporary Australian fiction. From the disappointment of Francis Drake who runs away to sea, to the love and sacrifice of a mother for her child. These brilliantly realised stories exceed the limits of everyday imagination, repeatedly drawing the reader into astonishingly diverse worlds which by turn shock, disturb and move to tears. Unacceptable Behaviour perfectly reflects the praise given to Penelope Rowe's highly acclaimed novel, Tiger Country: 'Powerfully written fiction, one based on important psychological truths.' - West Australian.
