These are books which may have some slight wear and tear or sun fading on the edges. There may be an inscription at the front. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA story of grief, memory, and obsession unfolds in Black Mirror, Gail Jones's haunting debut novel set against the sweeping, sun-scorched landscapes of Western Australia. The novel chronicles Victoria, a young woman consumed by the tragic death of her brother, whose grief leads her into a labyrinthine world of silent cinema, colonial history, and the seductive power of images. Jones presents a narrative in which the past refuses to remain silent, and the act of looking — at photographs, at film, at one another — becomes an act of reckoning.\n\nJones writes with a lyrical precision that transforms every scene into something approaching the cinematic: her prose is dense with visual metaphor and allusion, drawing on the traditions of European modernism while remaining distinctly Australian in its textures and preoccupations. Black Mirror is a meditation on how we mourn, how we remember, and how the images we create outlive us — a question that lingers long after the final page is turned.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130713579739,"sku":"9780330363563-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/b3817f72-ece3-431b-b53e-c973bed033cf.png?v=1786589046","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780330363563-secondhand-black-mirror","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
