Inhaltsangabe

Couscous Threads pulls no punches and never becomes sentimental as it exposes the harsh reality of Australian immigrants. The story centres on Rosine Ziden, an outworker, and the garment manufacturer for whom she works illegally. Dwelling in a form of enslavement, her existence is one of hardship and struggle as she lives under the thumb of her personality-deficient husband Omar. Written in a way that could easily be regarded as fact, the grim truth of her life is intermingled with excitement from the hiding of runaway refugees. Using various sub-plots, the author brings the characters together in a dramatic situation at the end, revealing some unpalatable insights not easily forgotten by the reader. The energy and drama levels of Couscous Threads are addictively high. Honestly told, the book brims with emotional and moral dilemmas. Although set in the 90s, this is now. Our times.
