Tuesday, October 11, 2005

Carolyn van Langenberg’s latest novel, blue moon, is the final novel in the fish lips trilogy. Set in the hinterland of Byron Bay in Australia and Penang in Malaysia, the fish lips trilogy — fish lips, the teetotaller’s wake and blue moon — embraces Australia’s uneasy negotiation with the word colonialism.
In 2000, fish lips was short-listed for the David T K Wong Fellowship, East Anglia University, UK. When it was a work-in-progress, sections from blue moon were highly commended for the Marion Eldridge Award.
With the assistance of a Literature Board grant awarded in 2001, Carolyn is researching the biography of the writer, the late G. M. Glaskin. She is an Honorary Associate at the University of Sydney in the School of English, Art History, Film & Media.
Carolyn is a writer who lives in the Blue Mountains in New South Wales.
