Description:
Winner of the 2018 Prime Minister's Literary Award for Fiction
A new work by a master of contemporary
Australian fiction, highly regarded overseas, but little-known here.
Giramondo's publication of Border
Districts, and the retrospective volume Collected
Short Fiction (early next year) is a collaboration with the distinguished
New York publisher Farrar Straus Giroux.
Conceived as Gerald
Murnane's last work of fiction, Border
Districts was written after the author moved from Melbourne to a small town
on the western edge of the Wimmera plains, near the border with South
Australia. The narrator of this fiction has made a similar move, from a capital
city to a remote town in the border country, where he intends to spend the last
years of his life. It is a time for exploring the enduring elements of his
experience, as these exist in his mind, images whose persistence is assured,
but whose significance needs to be rediscovered. Readers of Murnane's earlier
work will recognise some of these images: the dark-haired young woman at a
window; the ancestral house set in grasslands; coloured glass, marbles,
goldfish, the outfits of jockeys. Murnane's images often draw their power from
the light that falls upon them from a distant or mysterious source. But he also
considers the possibility that the mind casts its own light, imbuing the images
in the observer's mind with the colours of his soul.
As Murnane's
narrator declares, 'the mind is a place best viewed from borderlands'. In this
work, Border Districts also refers to
the border country between life and death; and there is another m

Very protective iPad case
Color: 1-Navy Blue
This MoKo iPad case is excellent! It fits perfectly and provides great protection without adding bulk. The navy blue color looks very sleek, and the translucent back shell is a nice touch. It’s super magnetic, with great padding. The smart cover works flawlessly with the auto wake/sleep feature, and the cutouts line up perfectly for Touch ID. Lightweight, durable, and a fantastic value!

Perfect, it fits like a glove.
Color: 1-Navy Blue
I really liked the sleeve, the navy blue color looks very elegant and the material feels resistant but soft to the touch. What I like the most is that the back is translucent, so you still see the design of the tablet.
It works great for watching videos because it stands firm when folding it, and turning off the screen alone when closing it is very practical. Because of the price it has, the quality is excellent.

Great Protective Case for My Mother’s iPad
Color: 2-Watermelon Red, Color: 2-Watermelon Red
I bought this case along with my mother’s new iPad, and it was the perfect choice. The watermelon red color looks beautiful with the pink iPad and gives it a very clean and stylish look. The case feels sturdy without adding too much weight, which makes it comfortable for her to carry around and use every day.
The stand feature works really well for watching videos, reading, and video calls. I also like that the case supports the auto wake and sleep function, which makes the iPad feel even more convenient and easy to use. The cutouts fit perfectly, and Touch ID still works without any issues.
The translucent back is a nice touch because it still lets the iPad color show through while keeping it protected from scratches and bumps. Overall, this case exceeded expectations and makes a great addition for anyone wanting both protection and style for their iPad.

Good product. What you see is what you get.
Color: 1-Navy Blue
Material feels sturdy and was a perfect fit compatible for my iPad. There's adequate grip and padding for a comfortable yet slim feel. Magnets hold it close and in one position when propping it up for watching landscape videos. Back is translucent as advertised. Solid product, put it on as i opened my new ipad for immediate protection. Perfectly safe blind buy if you're also getting that 'frequently bought together' suggestion from Amazon.
