She exposes pretension and exploitation with an acid wit and comic flair, and has won worldwide acclaim for her writing. This selection of stories spans more than thirty years and includes many not previously collected, along with well-known pieces from Hunting the Wild Pineapple and It's Raining in Mango, which won the inaugural Steele Rudd Award for the best short story collection.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46101050622171,"sku":"9780702229510-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/9780702229510-us-300.jpg?v=1728266072","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780702229510-secondhand-collected-stories-thea-astley","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
