‘A boisterous romp that spotlights serious social issues’ DAILY MAIL
'A Down Under Demon Copperhead… it's more than feel-good, it's feel-everything. What a triumph' A. J. FINN
Bighearted, gritty, magical and moving, this is the irresistible new novel from the internationally bestselling author of BOY SWALLOWS UNIVERSE and ALL OUR SHIMMERING SKIES.
'Mirror, mirror, on the grass, what's my future? What's my past?'
A girl and her mother have been on the run for sixteen years, from police and the monster they left in their kitchen with a knife in his throat. They've found themselves a home inside a van with four flat tyres parked in a scrapyard by the edge of the Brisbane River.
The girl has no name because names are dangerous when you're on the run. But the girl has a dream. A vision of a life as an artist of international acclaim. A life outside the grip of the Brisbane underworld drug queen 'Lady' Flora Box. A life of love with the boy who's waiting for her on the bridge that stretches across a flooding, deadly river. A life beyond the bullet that has her name on it. And now that the storm clouds are rising, there's only one person who can help make her dreams come true. That person is Lola and she carries all the answers. But to find Lola, the girl with no name must first do one of the hardest things we can ever do. She must look in the mirror.
From international bestselling author Trent Dalton, LOLA IN THE MIRROR is a big, moving, blackly funny, violent, heartbreaking and beautiful novel of love, fate, life and death and all the things we see when we look in the mirror: all our past, all our present, and all our possible futures.
Trent Dalton is a two-time Walkley Award–winning journalist and the international bestselling author of Boy Swallows Universe, All Our Shimmering Skies and Love Stories. His books have sold over 1.2 million copies in Australia alone.
