Winner of the 1978 Miles Franklin Award, Tirra Lirra by the River follows Nora Porteous as she escapes the confines of small-town Queensland, marriage and suburbia, eventually making a life in London before returning to Australia in old age. The novel is a sharp, lyrical work about memory, independence, art, regret and the versions of ourselves we create in order to survive.
