Cosmo Cosmolino

Originally published in 1992, this is the reprint of an adult novel in which three diverse characters share the occupancy of a run-down house. There's Janet, a sharp-tongued sceptic straight out of the 1970s; fundamentalist, moth-eaten Ray and shameless Maxine, ecstatic about auras and angels. The author has won many literary awards and her books include 'Monkey Grip', and 'Postcards from Surfers'.
